Saddle Horn

[SpursNM]

I was given an association tree minus the horn...anyone know where you can buy horns?

Thanks

These both make bronze horns.

I've purchased a couple from Boise Foundry, go to http://www.boisefoundry.com/saddlecatalog.htm for a catalog of all the different styles. Nice folks to work with.

I did NOT install mine the correct way, I just routed out the swells a bit, screwed the horn in place and then wrapped it in leather. It worked for me since I was just adding them to my wifes endurance saddles that she had ordered without horns.

If you want to do it right you may be better off buying a tree. Here's the steps from Rod and Denise Nikkel's website. That's the Denise who answered you earlier.

So retrofitting a horn properly is fairly involved. But, as I have proven myself, simply screwing the horn to the tree and covering it works too.
