GOOD NEWS
for those of you with large horses!

We are now pleased to offer longer billets on any bareback saddle at no extra charge. When we first designed our bareback saddle, we made it to fit horses like our own--basically medium-sized, around 15 hands. However, since then a number of people with larger horses have suggested that we make the billets longer, so they have a wider range of girths available to them.

The large billets are recommended for horses 16 hands or over, or for shorter horses who have a very round build.

Our regular billets are about 12-13 inches long when measured from the bottom edge of the saddle, and are the ones seen in all the photographs on this site. The longer billets are 18-19 inches long (see comparison photo at left.)

NOTE: when ordering a saddle, please specify regular or long billets. There is no charge for longer billets AT THE TIME YOU ORDER, but if you return a saddle to have the billets changed, there will be a $40.00 charge because of the labor involved. This charge will apply on orders placed after 8-14-2006.
