Sandy Robbins Report post Posted February 23, 2014 I am in Florida. You could contact this group http://coloradosaddlemakers.org/ I am sure someone there could put you in touch with a reputable saddle maker. Building your own saddle is extremely rewarding. Make sure you put alot of thought into what kind of saddle you want. What you are going to use it for and especially the kind that will fit both you and your horse. These are things your saddle maker will help you with. Good luck to you and enjoy your new experience! Sandy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cdthayer Report post Posted February 23, 2014 Thanks for posting the link to the Colorado Saddle Makers Association. I didn’t know about it. This is kind of off-topic, but I hope someday they include Colorado Saddle Maker History on the site. That would be interesting. Really off-topic, but I still have my first kid saddle that my Dad had made when he got himself a new one back in the mid-50s. It is kid-sized, but built strong enough for ranch work. They were made at the Martin Saddle Shop in Bayfield Colorado. CD in Oklahoma Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy Robbins Report post Posted February 23, 2014 That would be a great idea for every state to have the history of all the great Saddlemakers. I would definitely hold on to that saddle...a great piece of history. Sandy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
