These saddles sit forward on a back of your horse than traditional western seats. The stirrups attaché in a more forward position, so it puts the weight and rider ’s center of gravity in a more forward stance rather than the middle of the spine. The girth should be 1″ to 3″ behind the horse’s front legs. This position is unquestionably far more comfortable for most horses and greatly enhances horse performance.
How you should fit a saddle on your horse:
If the contact along the panels at the front of the seat is even, then the saddle is level. Two to four inches of clearance should be between the top of the saddle chamber and the top of the withers.
