Your saddle is perhaps your most important piece of equipment and therefore must be selected carefully and fitted properly to ensure optimum comfort for you and your horse. It is our mission at Olson’s Tack Shop to help you find the right saddle, as well as to educate you about what constitutes a correct saddle fit.
Since so many of our valued customers expressed interest in learning more about saddle fitting practices, we decided to create a series of pages dedicated to the subject.
From learning to take wither and back tracings to being able to gauge whether or not your current saddle is right for your horse, Olson’s is committed to providing you with information that will empower you as horse lovers.
This page is but a spring board to a wealth of information that will help you understand all there is to know about saddles and saddle fitting. Follow the links below to begin your journey.
