Girth strap replacement

[fallenangel123]

Hi, I need to have some girth straps replaced on a wintec saddle so am looking for an actual saddler. There are quite a few country stores, saddle fitters etc but does anyone have the number of someone who can do the work rather than send it away?
Many thanks. (I'm Sleaford way which would probably help)

Most of them you can change yourself if you can get replacement straps, or at the least a saddler could do it in the shop. I watched them replace mine (I have the Bates leather straps on my Wintec - they are much nicer to use) and she did it in 10 mins. No tools involved. If it's one strap on either side you could move the unused centre ones to the required position really easily.

I can't do them myself, they are stitched so I need a saddler but can't find one :-(

I have never heard it called Bloodhounding but then that is what is happening.
