Gary Winckler Posted November 8, 2008 Report Posted November 8, 2008 Tosch,The first saddles I saw with no hand hole was in Idaho.It was first done to stop juniper needles getting against your horses back and also keeping the cold from coming up their.As to do we need to cut them? I think that is the customers preference. Steve Steve, When you construct a no handhole saddle is it just the seat that covers the area where the handhole would be or do you leave the groundseat material in that area as well? I ask the question because if you leave the ground seat material in that area it would seem difficult to put the screws into the skirt points in that area. Nice Saddle!

Steve Brewer Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Posted November 8, 2008 Gary The ground seat is not cut out.I nail my skirts by turning the saddle up side down.Works well on regular seats as well. Thank you Steve Quote
Members pella Posted November 9, 2008 Members Report Posted November 9, 2008 That look nice!! Beautiful! I like this seat with no hand hole. A question i have about loop seat: I'm wondering if that part can tear over time if someone often push the stirrup on the front? Or the slot accomodate all the move? forward and back. Regardless of that question, i do think the loop seat look GREAT! Quote
