English and Western Saddle Fitting Specializing in BOTH Horse and Rider Comfort, Balance, and Functionality
Includes : A horse evaluation regarding overall health, state of growth, and weight. I will do a back/wither tracing that you get to keep if desired. I will bring saddles from The Stagecoach West to you to test ride in if desired. I will answer pad, bit, girth, saddle, stirrup length, hoof boot, and most general horsemanship questions and give a list of recommendations.
Affiliated with Stagecoach West to take up to 5 saddles on trial
20 + years experience in fitting saddles, tack and in riding and training horses professionally
Extensive experience riding horses in long distance competitive trail/endurance events, where if your tack doesn’t fit well, horse and rider will KNOW IT!
No brand loyalty, I will fit new saddles, used saddles, cheap saddles and expensive saddles! (although you get what you pay for!)
Flat barn visit fee, no hidden commissions!
I can evaluate fair value of your used saddles and equipment
I also fit bits, hoof boots, and other tack checks
I can also educate groups, work with youth or horse clubs to give a 1 day lecture/demo day on tack fit, contact for details
