Sigh
We drove the hour to Shelton for the tack sale, minutes before we arrived I got a text from the saddle fitter, she was there and had her eye on a Tucker saddle so when we arrived the first thing we did was use the cut outs to measure and it looked pretty dang close to a fit. So Lan & I drove all the way back home, loaded up Amble and hauled her to Shelton to check.
And it didn't fit.
I mean, it fit really well but Amble is just so round that the saddle rocked side to side, no matter what pads or shims we tried. Two hours. And still no saddle.
I will hold onto the cash ($900) and put it toward a cart but I still need to ride so I'm thinking its going to be with a bareback pad.

Ambleside Is Growing Up
Daisetta Cordura Trail Saddle 6914
New to the High Horse Cordura line, this Daisetta Trail Saddle offers a number of custom options to really make this one your own. Featuring High Horse's new border tooling pattern extending from the Pommel back to the cantle, and topped off with new copper flower conchos.
From there, you choose from a black suede or black grainout double padded seat, walnut or black finish, and regular, wide, or extra wide tree. The short, rounded, 26" skirt makes this a great option for the shorter backed horse.
An adjustable position flat plate rigging gives you the freedom to choose your rigging style and the tall cantle will provide security under a variety of trail conditions. Cordura fenders and skirt keep this saddle down to a mere 21lb. Long saddle strings make this a great choice for the trails.
Made in the USA.
