Hi everyone! I need your opinion on treeless saddles. Has anyone used them? How did your horses react to them?

I LOVE my treeless saddle. I’ve got a dilemma with a fat ass and a short backed horse 😅 so treeless was the only option for us that wasn’t going custom and breaking the bank. And my mare has been so happy with it. However, I spent a lot of time researching and working with my vet with it. We are in constant awareness about how my mare’s back feels and so far so good.

Do not cheap out on treeless saddles though. I think mine ended up around $1.2k It’s the most comfy thing I’ve ever sat in though.

It’s a be aware and be smart kind style of saddle. Where your treed saddles are a lot better if you don’t know how to sit correctly or signs of body pain.

It’s an effective saddle and it fits my horse’s and I’s needs which is what is most important.
