I'm not repeating something someone else said, but my personal opinion
is that i's best to buy a high quality used saddle than a cheaper brand
new one. Nowadays it seems like a lot of companies are making
cheap knock-offs of nicer saddles. I'm looking to buy, and i
almost bought a really old saddle that was super high quality... it was
an older style Beval Natural...the new ones suck, by the way. I
didnt end up getting it, but i think that I'm going to get one of those
or an older Pessoa A/O... for the money, they're worth it, even used!
Pessoa's have a lifetime warranty on the tree. Just like
everything else, stuff was made better "way back when"....so keep that
in mind in your search for a saddle. BUT, if you go with a used
one, have a reputable person check it out first to make sure it's in
good shape#ed_op#/div#ed_cl#

that they are really good for the horse. In fact, a vet
recommended my friend get one for her horse with a sore back. I
think they're really nice saddles, and they've been around
forever. I'm a fan of sticking with something that works... I
dont like to buy into new fad stuff, and before I buy a saddle, I want
to know that its a brand that's been around for a while and
working. Similar to a truck, I suppose. I'm a diehard Chevy
fan...they last forever...wont catch me buying some new Honda
pickup...they just havent been doing it long enough to get it
right. Same goes for saddles...companies that have been doing it
longer make better saddles#ed_op#/div#ed_cl#
