| I really hate it when u buy a new saddle and it fits ur horse perfect but when u ride in it u feel like a retarded monkey. I bought this really nice saddle about 2 months ago and it fits my horse great but it I don't like the way I ride when I run her in it I feel all over her back and I haven't felt like that in my older saddles. I hate it bit I have a younger horse so I'll probally try it on him if it work out on him I'll b selling it. It just is so frustrating. I don't know if any one else has ever felt like that it makes me sick to know I have possibly wasted money on a good saddle tried it out and liked it but can't run in it on my mare... |

| Don't feel bad, I've spent and lost enough money on saddles that didn't work out I could have paid for a couple of expensive custom ones. Spent enough on shipping saddles back and forth to try to have paid for a majority of the stock holder shares in UPS! |

Location: The best kept secret in TX | I have had to send saddles back before because they didn't fit me well. When I got a different seat or changed a few things about the saddle I didn't like it has never came back and worked...
I'll eventually just buy a treeless when I can but for now, I ride in my prehistoric billy cook treed saddle and it fits my horse with shims... Not a fan of BCs but hey... it'll work I guess.  |

Location: Montana | I'm glad I'm not the only one. I have one I just bought after Christmas, good brand (one of the best), and I'm still trying to figure it out. It fits both of my horses, but I feel sometimes like I am going to fall out of it. I want to try making a run in it first before I make any decisions, but just my regular work, and mostly at a trot, I'm going over the back end. |

I had this problem in the saddle I sent back that fit my horse perfect. |
