Hey, I've been wondering what your take on treeless saddles was?

Dear Mr. Trocha,
I have a 5 yr. old reining mare (14 hands and short coupled) and have had problems finding a reining saddle, or any saddle to fit her properly. After schooling sessions, she consistently has dry spots on her shoulders at the withers and sometimes in the pocket behind her withers. I have tried my Leddy cutter, a custom built saddle on a modified quarter tree, and lately have borrowed an old Coats saddle that seems to allow her more shoulder room. Recently, I rode her in a Jim Taylor Xtreme reiner and she was evenly wet under the saddle pad (3/4 in. 5-Star).
Yesterday, I watched your videos on reining and cutting saddle fit and never really thought about how important the curve in the bars can be. I am very concerned about the comfort of my horse and I would greatly appreciate the name of the saddle maker you mentioned in your videos.
Thanks so much the information in your videos. Looking forward to hearing your response. Teresa Faulk

i have a question on support boots… i know you suggest the iconoclast but what skid boots do you suggest.

i really enjoy watching your videos ive watched every single one at least once and most of them 5+ times.

@gregory kirk: Hi Gregory. I recommend the Iconoclast boots front and rear. If you put them on right, I doubt you will need skid boots.

I know that is hard to believe but I've been using these boots for 8 months now and the horse's fetlocks seldom hit the ground… even when they are stopping really hard.

Hi Larry, Just wanted to thank you for your great training tips, and use of equipment. My horse is big, athletic, fast, and real spooky ~ I mean WAS! I've been following your tips, useing the german martingale, and Its amazing… he's a totally different horse. What a pleasure, so responsive. I'm getting the training tips set next. Can't wait Thanks again

Hi Larry,
I've been casually riding English (mainly dressage) most of my life and decided to broaden my horizons into the reining world. I'm currently looking for a saddle to fit my 5 year old QH, who has a short back. I'd like to find something that fits her well without interfering with her movement. (Shouldn't all saddles?) I believe a saddle with a rounded skirt is probably important, but do you have any suggestions of saddle characteristics that I should keep in mind? I'm so hesitant to buy something, as I know how important saddle fit is to free flowing movement.

Love your easy to understand and follow style, Larry…refreshing! Was wondering about saddle pads. I have been riding in an endurance saddle, but just purchased a used western saddle to take some lessons (been riding all my life, just no schooling) and to maybe do some small local shows. The saddle fits my horse well. What type of saddle pad do you prefer? There are so many out there, my head is spinning!

@Debbie: Hi Debbie. I really like the Toklat woolback pad with the suede top.

It's not too thin or thick… it's just right… and it looks good too.

Make sure you wash the lanolin out of it before you use it or it will slip on your horse's back.

Hi Larry

Could you explain the main difference between the German martingale and the headsetter? Do they accomplish different things? Thank you

@Jesse: Didn't you watch the videos about those two pieces of equipment?

Not much more I can say that wasn't in the videos.

I forgot to mention that it doesn't happen the whole time riding, just sometimes. I noticed when I squeezed his withers he put his head up high and arched so I think that's why he's Doing that. I wanted to get a chiropractor out but I never used one before so I'm worried if the chiropractor can damage my horse. And if it's only a one time session or a on going treatment? What do you think about chiropractors?
