just wondering how big mine is,from which point do you start and finish?and how do you work out width and seat size? thanks
 
get a flexible tape measure and start at the cantle and finish at the pommel (following the contours of the saddle)
that will tell you the seat size (if your horse is probs be somewhere around 16-18 ")

then the width you usually measure from D-ring to D-ring
but different makes of saddles with class different widths.
im sure someone will be able to tell you better than me

and seeing as mine was pretty useless... here you go lol
