Editorial Reviews: Product Description Written specifically for Western-style riding and horses,this guide offershelpful advice on subjects such ashorse and riderconformation andsaddle construction. Horse owners will benefit fromclear explanations ofthe variables thatmust be considered in order to keepa horse comfortable. Because many aspects change accordingto various exercise and training programs, a sectionon the use of pads and shims for temporary problem solving, as well as invaluable information on caring for the horse back?both in the short and long term?is included. Emphasizing that a good fit is not determined by the brand, cost, or style of a saddle?an expensive model can cause just as much harm asa cheaper one?this guidebook discusses how fit is determined by a saddle that allows the horse's back to function correctly, while keeping the rider in a well-balanced position.

Customer Reviews: A great, hard to find resource for western saddle fit July 1, 2008 6 out of 7 found this review helpful After months of wait for the release, my copy finally came. I am very happy with the book. It is an excellent reference for western saddle fit issues for both horse and rider. Covers a wide variety of saddle styles, pros and cons, etc. How to evaluate the soundness of saddle trees on used saddles. Common conformational issues and how they impact fit. Even pads and fittings get are covered. Just a wonderful, all-around go-to source. Will be next to the author's English saddle book in my permanent library.
