Saddle Fitting. Ironically Good AND Bad!

[Trevelyan96]

2 horses, 4 saddles. A County Drespri, which is my absolute favorite saddle. A Pessoa jumping saddle, that fit Trav like a glove. A Collegiate dressage saddle that also fit Trav like a glove. And a basic Dover Circuit close contact that was a short term fill in I picked up dirt cheap for a project mare I sold a while ago. My plan was to see if anything I owned fit my CURRENT horses, sell what didn't and use whatever I can get for them towards the purchase price of whatever we need.

Results:

The Drespi fits DD's hunter like a glove.
The cheapo Dover Circuit fits MY dressage horse like a glove.

This is my life in general, LOL.

Oops! That sounds like something that would happen to me. :)

And if anyone has a suggestion as to where I can find a reasonably priced (under $1,500) med tree dressage saddle, with straight billets (front not attached to tree points), shorter flap, and wider panels, please let me know!

Ah well... at least the Drespri has adjustable flaps so DD and trainer can set them for jumping. :D
