Standard centerfire rigging
The Old Timer saddle is a deep pocket seat saddle built with a Wade Fork pommel and a high cantle (+7"). Built on the suspended seat, riders are securely positioned in this saddle in a posture that allows a natural balanced legs straight down from the hips position (as opposed to the dashboard posture). The western fenders on this saddle are loosely hung however, therefore allowing the rider to position their legs in whatever position they need. You can build this saddle with english fenders and stirrup leathers as well if you desire the freedom of stirrup leathers. Note in the photos the high pommel that would allow for a high-withered horse.
Don't need or want a horn but love the security of the seat? Build it without a horn at no extra cost (see picture gallery below).
Weighing in at 28 lbs, the Old TImer comes in two trees: the standard tree (full quarter) and XWide, a flatter bar but the same 6.5 gullet opening. All options are available on this saddle.
MULES: we have fit many a mule in this saddle. NOTE: some mules are built like horses, some horses are built like mules so don't only look at models that state for mules, you may be pleasantly surprised.
