I just found this post on a search to find a way to address uneven shoulder in a horse. My gelding's saddle twists to the right when I ride. I looked at his shoulders and his left is a lot larger. Is there a way to even out the horse (chiro, excercise...) or is that just how he is built? (I always ride equally on both reins). Also, my saddle has foam panels so is not adjustable. Can these be changed to wool? Or is there any other adjustments that can be made to a foam saddle. The saddle is a…

Hello:<br />
I have one of those very short backed, large barreled Arabs. It took me along time to learn What saddle we needed, then try to find one!

I have one of those very short backed, large barreled Arabs. It took me along time to learn What saddle we needed, then try to find one! Too many saddle makers work off stock trees, and won't do a true custom saddle, those few I found that would do a true custom saddle wanted way more $ than you charge. I found an old saddle ($200) made alterations to it ($100) but knowing that both me and my horse where going to change I made everything to be easy to change or remove. Friends and fellow riders say my saddle is ugly, but it is a God send to my horse and I. After two years and many saddles tried, now we are doing limited distance endurance and we both feel great at the end 25 or 30 miles. Keep up the good work, because the right saddle is so important for horse and rider. Diane
