About Gaited Horse Saddles
With each footstep independent from the rest, the back and shoulders of gaited horses perform with more action, more motion than a two-beat horse. Without a proper saddle fit, your horse's movement is restricted and your horse is uncomfortable. The result? The horse adjusts or drops his gait to "get away from" discomfort.
Gaited saddles prevent this from ever happening, and even enhance your horse's natural movement. Saddles for gaited horses are made to allow the horse the freedom of movement and comfort he needs, while strengthening the balance and seat of the rider.
The trees are not just widened in the gullet. The bars and twist must be specially angled. Each gaited saddle should be designed to allow complete natural movement, never pinching the withers or interfering with the natural nod.
Gated horse saddles ensure shorter, rounded skirts for no gait interference, and multiple rigging options allow unrestrained shoulder movement.
Before you make any gaited saddle purchase, make sure you get the best fit for your horse. A gaited horse saddle with a quarter horse tree that only has the gullet altered won't do it. Think of the load bearing area on the horse's back. When the saddle tree is a poor fit for the breed, the pounds of pressure per square inch on the back of the horse multiplies. Five pounds of pressure from a 160 lb rider turns into 20 to 40 pounds of pressure! Improper fits are all too easily hidden by the saddle skirt.
