Mounted Shooting Western Saddles

The correct choice of saddle provides comfort and convenience both for the horse and for the rider, keeping the horse’s back healthy for many years. A seat is not a piece of leather that is fashionably decorated. A saddle is the security of a horse and rider. The saddle can be sold in a set with necessary items. Otherwise, these elements will have to be selected separately. The primary role is played by the correct distribution of the rider’s weight on the saddle, and therefore on the horse’s back.

If you have been riding for a long time already, or you have your horse, then you are probably thinking about getting a good saddle that would suit your taste and comfort. If so, here are some instructions on how to choose the right seat. This will help you save time, nerves and money when buying a saddle.

First, determine the required size of the saddle

To achieve comfort and safety, the size of the seat is significant. Too small a size will restrict the rider’s freedom of movement and thereby interfere with good horse control. Too large a size will allow the rider to collapse on the rim of the saddle, which leads to excessive loading of the horse’s back. The legs of the rider will be too far forward, which is not conducive to traditional management. The normal position of the rider is a vertical back, slightly retracted, and legs slightly brought forward. The main rule when choosing a saddle is the comfort of the rider.
