If the treeless turns out not to be my cup of tea (lots of comments about hip spread, etc) I am curious about the Tucker and Cashel saddles.
I know Cashel from saddle pads, which I do not use however, but many do. I heard they are a less expensive alternative to Tucker. Does this mean less quality or comfort, for human and horse? They do look nice, as well as light weight.
Have never tried Tucker either, but they certainly are heavily marketed for comfort…
Basically I want a lightweight western saddle, with fairly traditional looks, that will be comfortable for myself (110lbs) and my horse…
I realize I may have to try a few but at least want to narrow down the search
