New Saddle for Sid

Post by Maverick » Sun Jul 05, 2009 10:45 pm

I ordered a new Heskett trooper saddle about three weeks ago and finally got out this weekend for my first ride with it.
Russ did a great job and I could not be happier. I got the trooper breast collar and a fat strap to go along with it.
I was out with Kiki's Mom for a 3 hour plus ride on Saturday and the saddle rode like a dream.
I have attached a few pictures below of Sid modeling his new saddle.

And he claims he wasn't even sore the next day! :mrgreen:

Andre bought himself the Cadillac Escalade of field trial horses with the custom leather seating to match, didn't he? By the love of God that Sid is a heck of a NICE ride!!! He has done well and will enjoy every minute in the saddle from here on out I hope :wink: :wink: :wink:

I know I enjoyed riding with him too. We saw all sorts of great wild life from a pair of spotty baby fawn twins to a great big ole barn owl and even a couple of grouse!!!
