So i got this saddle for Daisy, I think it fits her pretty well. But I wanted some second opinions on it.
I haven't figure out if I want to double rig it or do centerfire with a crupper or britchen.
I have it just snug enough to hold it on for the pics. I think it needs to sit back just a bit further - i know the ones w/o the pad its sitting too far forward.

it sits pretty level on her, even when its cinched down. The bars look like they're making even contact all the way down.

I really like the simplicity of this saddle and the fact that it's stripped down - so less weight for Daisy. I need to get a shorter cinch!!

so here they are!

thanks!

By the last picture she looked like she was getting into the photo shoot. [ ':)'

] I think it's a cool saddle! And she looks dashing in it! I guess sliding your hand under to check the contact is how I was told to do it and it sounds like you've done that. I'll let the long-ear folks weigh in but I just think she's the cutest thing!!

honestly I can't really tell, she's pretty easy going LOL so Im assuming that since she didn't pitch any kind of a fit, she's good. lol. i think it's gonna fit even better once she looses some of her fat pads.
