English Tack?
I'm thinking about buying an english saddle. What do i need like stirrups,girth, bridle, ect.? What else please make a list.
Thanks!
Well that's NICE!
Okay, I'm being facetious... The reason I am is because you haven't told us what TYPE of English saddle you want.
Saddles:
All Purpose: Means a little bit of jumping, flat work, dressage.
Huntseat: These are mainly for jumping. (Warmbloods, TBs)
Close contact
Kneerolls
Dressage: (Warmbloods)
Saddle Seat: (Saddlebreds, Tennesse Walking horses, Arabians.)
You also need to consider how much you want to spend.
Cheap English saddles are typically made in India with poor leather tanning and craftsmanship.
Better saddles are made in Europe.
Now to go with your saddle, for the bare basics you'll need:
1.) Stirrup leathers
2.) Stirrup Irons
3.) Girth (I'd get a leather one with elastic on at least one end.
4.) Saddle pad
Remember to measure both you and your horse before you buy a saddle.
Okay, your next question should be what type of bridle...
