well, I’ll take you up on that one:
am training a riding-to-be ox (4yrs old) with a Royal King Western saddle (one4all); it keeps sliding back about 4 inches when under weight; am I too far up on the shoulder with it? do I use the 2nd cinchring that is above the stirrup? :confused:

If you have a problem with this, use a saddle pad with some grip ie neoprene -and a breast plate would help prevent the saddle from slipping backward. We do use the backstrap on a western saddle.

ParticipantWelcome!
Nice website, your pics had me smiling a bunch of times! Thanks, I needed that:D
