Got saddle **pics** so confused!

I tried my saddle on Dubie and I DON'T KNOW HOW TO CINCH IT!

First,....I fought the bridle that only comes in 2 sizes....Full and Cobb...well it's too big so I have to add holes...is that normal in the horse world?

I fought the breastplate because it's NEW LEATHER!!!! ARGH!

The cinching system is something called Tackaberry,...what the heck is tackaberry??? I knew it was different but not that different. Did I mention I hate new leather. lol.

So it looks like I will have to wait for Sunday to have my instructor help figure it out. I sure am incompatent (sp) today!

So doesn't he look spiffy!






and what the heck is this??? Is this an english thing....aussie....what???

Definitely different than what I've seen, but seeing as I'm a dressage rider and eventer - saddles with a horn in general are something new!

He sure does look nice though - good luck with the new leather!
