Members oldtimer Posted April 27, 2013 Members Report Posted April 27, 2013 What is the main difference between a horsetree and a mule tree? Nice saddle BTW Knut Quote "The gun fight at the O.K. corral was actually started by two saddlemakers sitting around a bottle of whiskey talking about saddle fitting"...
Members Dwight Posted April 27, 2013 Members Report Posted April 27, 2013 Good looking saddle, . . . looks like a lot of effort went into that one. Oldtimer beat me to my question, though. May God bless, Dwight Quote If you can breathe, . . . thank God. If you can read, . . . thank a teacher. If you are reading this in English, . . . thank a veteran. www.dwightsgunleather.com
Members Tosch Posted April 28, 2013 Members Report Posted April 28, 2013 Oldtimer, A mule saddle tree has less rock because a mule's back is straighter/flatter than a horse's back. Tosch Quote
Members BondoBobCustomSaddles Posted April 28, 2013 Members Report Posted April 28, 2013 Nice job Bill, I like the overall look of the saddle, and am sure that it will look right at home on one of those long eared critters! Bob Quote
Members Billy H Posted April 28, 2013 Author Members Report Posted April 28, 2013 Thanks for your nice comments. I not not a mule expert, in fact this is my first mule saddle. The tree I built on is one of Jon Watsabaughs. The tree fit some horses really nice also. In fact one of my horses it fit really well and was considering making myself a new Wade. Jon makes beautiful trees. Thanks Billy Quote
