So here is one that I just finished for a female customer. She is into Western Dressage, which is gaining in popularity here in the Michigan area. This saddle features, insert padded seat, narrow twist area and wide seat area to accommodate the female anatomy, along with stirrups set back 1 1/2" from normal to allow for her to sit up straight and have her leg position below her without forcing her inner thighs outward. Also this saddle is deeply cut in at the leg position to allow very close contact with the horse and rider, it also has a "youth" horn to allow for interference free hand position since she rides with a bosal. The color and tooling is of her choice. She brought me a picture of what she wanted and said can you do this? I did.

I'll post a pic of it on the horse once she gets it to me.

Good looking saddle. That'll be lots of maintenance work with the stirrups being in this bright color ;) Riding Western Dressage with a bosal? Must be very well trained horse.

Bob, could you ask her for a little video? I'm quite curious to see how the horse moves.

Holy crap man. I can't imagine how much work goes into something like that. I've got enough trouble staying current on my holsters and knife sheaths, that would take me years to build. Beautiful work.
