I am having real trouble with my Jeremy Rudge saddle. I bought it made to measure about 5 years ago and have never had any trouble with it until its last two re- flocks.
It has started to sit to the right so the left side of the pommel would be pressing against his withers, to add to this they left a pin in it which was also pressing into him until i noticed it.
They re- flocked to sit the saddle higher but after a couple of uses it was leaning again, now i am not perfect and may drop a hip but i can put all my weight into the left stirrup and it dosent come straight, so to me that suggests that it is not all me
I took it in yesterday to hopfully get it fixed and show my concerns, to come away insulted and feeling torn apart.
Being told it dosent matter if it is not straight infront as it does not touch the horse ,that it would correct itself?and that they would try and correct it "for my eye"
So i get it back and now it is still off infront and the panels underneath are out of alignment so, it seem this saddler is blind and canot see the saddle infront of them this is soo annoying!
So does anyone know a good saddler in this area ( i am in polegate, east sussex) who i can communicate with and they will understand and have EYES to see for themselves.
Got to sort my poor horsies sore back/withers out now!
Sorry but its really stressing me out!
