I need some advice pls...
on a make and model of a saddle which provides a really good secure seat for when your out hacking and the thoroughbred part of my boy decides to come out in him ! But something you can also jump/ xc (my boys got a huge jump and although I'm not quite there yet I'm hoping we will be in the near future) and do a bit of dressage in: we were hoping to start competing in small competitions in the summer, but primarily I want to feel as safe and secure as possible when careering around the countryside!
He currently has a bates elevation which does not fit in any way shape or form...had it fitted by a supposedly qualified saddle fitter but even I knew it didn't fit (Should've trusted my instincts and said no thanks but hindsights a great thing!)
Hes flat backed, small withered and 15.2hh, very slim build...if that helps.
I would like a good value for money great all round saddle
What does anyone suggest?
(Also does anyone know any decent saddle fitters in South West Devon?)
I would really appreciate the help Thanks to all who answer!
