Hi,
I'm new to the forum having posted only once before about whether to buy my horse or not - I am now pretty certain that I'll be buying her as I have been lucky enough to be able to try her out several times this week and she has been ideal!
So, I was not lucky enough to get any tack with her and am now looking for some help.
I have tried a few saddles from the riding school and have come to the conclusion that you get what you pay for! My favourite has been an Albion GP which was incredibly comfortable and seemed to help my position loads! Unfortunately, I don't think I can persuade my OH to spend £1100 on a new one!!
Would you recommend buying a second-hand saddle and from a saddle shop / fitters rather than privately? Are all the top brands of similar quality to Albion? I will probably only ever be a happy hacker and was thinking to spend £500 or so.
Thanks in advance!! Louise
