need help tying latigo

horsey987 · 01-03-2008, 12:09 PM

So I went out to saddle my horse today for the first time since I've had him. But there's something missing from my saddle. The leather piece to cinch the girth isn't there.
Here's some pics:

So is this what I need to buy to replace that?

This is just a temporary saddle. I plan on buying a better one sometime soon, but for now this is what I have to ride with.

WHOA hold it, is that a rear cinch youre looking at/ for, not the tie strap?

You can just barely see in the first picture at the top right hand corner the strap for the rear cinch. Or, at least, that's what it should be.

The saddle doesn't have a rear cinch on it either but I didn't really think I needed one.

Western saddles don't HAVE to have a rear cinch to function...

Thats a better pic you posted next.
Many/most saddles dont need a rear cinch.
For a second there it looked like a flank cinch was being confused with a latigo tie.

The potential results were a lil
