  1. Ha! I can guarantee it was a great story knowing the man who owned this saddle! I did find out a little bit about this saddle. Floyd Lingle was a saddle maker in Central Florida. I believe he passed away in the late 70's. This saddle was called Little Wonder. Mr. Lingle worked with Monroe Veach as well. I would love more info in anyone has any!
  2. Hi everyone! I am trying to get some information about a saddle that I have. I got the saddle from a dear friend of mine, he actually is the one that taught me everything I know about horses and riding. When he had to go live in a nursing home, I was given his horse and all of his tack. The Floyd Lingle saddle is the saddle that he has been riding in for atleast the past 30 years, I'm nearly 36 and have known him since I was 6. I grew up in Orlando, FL and spent many weekends with him on his horse farm. So, for this saddle to be made in Kissimmee, FL makes sense. I have been trying to find any information about this saddle and cannot come up with much of anything. Can anyone give me some information? I am including pictures of the saddle. It does need to be cleaned, but I'm afraid to do anything to it, I would be heartbroken if anything happened to it. It is extremely comfortable and very well made. The stirrups that are on the saddle now are not the originals, however I took pictures of the originals. Thanks for any info!
