Master Saddler/Saddle fitter recommendations Bucks/Oxon

[Fifty Bales of Hay]

Can anybody please recommend a saddler or saddle fitter near to me on the Oxon/Bucks border, who can totally take out and re-flock with new wool, a pony saddle for me, and not charge me a fortune to do it?

Either to come out and look at the pony then take it away to re-flock - or do on site (although realise this might be tricky) and refit to the pony?

Or I can take the saddle to the saddler for them to do it, with a wither pattern and photos, measurements or whatever is required, without seeing the pony.

Who can you recommend and how much have you paid to have this done please?

Try Alice Nuttgens, always found her very helpful. She checked fit of 2 ponies 2 saddles last summer, one saddle she just checked, the other she changed gullet and added flock on site in her van, so am sure she could totally re-flock on site. Can't recall how much she charged for the visit but I have a feeling was about £70? (was an expensive week just prior to end of term and pony club camp with farrier and new jodhs needed for the week etc!). Whatever it was I thought it reasonable, given she was on site probably a good 2 hours by the time she'd seen both ponies ridden before and after alterations, one in both saddles? Would suggest give her a call and ask for an estimate.

I've used Dawn at RB Equestrian. Really knows her stuff and fitted my hard-to-fit Welshie beautifully. http://www.rbequestrian.co.uk/. Very thorough, and I think particularly good on natives.
She will come and fit your own, and will supply too.
ETA depends which part of Ox/Bucks border you are... I'm near the Bicester bit and it works fine getting her out from MK.

Ditto Dawn at Rb. Very thorough and has natives herself, very good with all shapes and sizes though.
