Third Saddle Tryout Take 2
Take two for the third saddle I'm trying out. It worked out wonderfully! I lunged her in it and then of course rode around in the arena, it felt like this was our saddle. Ava was also lowering her head and seemed quite soft even with all the weather changes still happening. Surprisingly she got a pretty good workout although it didn't seem like it at the time; but she did great. I also tried a different saddle pad and it seemed to have solved all the problems, so maybe it was just the pad. I am so glad this saddle has worked out so far, we will try it once or twice more before I make a decision. Although so far it is looking very likely that I may purchase it. Finally after all these years! I also forgot to mention that this saddle had actually been sitting at the tack shop for a really long time and for some reason I never tried it! So glad I did though. They are asking $600 for it, a pretty good price for a Billy Royal but hopefully they will accept something lower, possibly $400? That would be my goal. We'll have to see!

I'd say make an offer. It can't hurt.
