Flank girth rings installed on a Australian stock saddle?

Tue, 20 Jul 2010 17:40:42 +0000

Is it possible to get flank girth rings installed on an Australian Stock Saddle that isn't already equipped with them? I heard some saddlers will chuck a ring on stock saddles but I don't know if this is true.

I ask because it's not a necessity so I won't buy a stock saddle that already has them.

A Close Review of Australian Stock Saddles

Wed, 30 Dec 2009 12:55:47 +0000

If you are someone who is interested in riding or you are looking to get back into it after a long absence, you may find that Australian Stock Saddles are items that you need to take a look at. These saddles, also known as poleys, are quite different from the English or Western saddles that you might have been used to, though they have a few key factors in common with the English Saddle. These saddles are popular all over the world and they are perfect for anyone who intends to spend long hours in the seat and who need to have a secure seat while they do it. If you are interested in this type of saddle, you will find that there are a few things that you need to keep in mind. When you are looking at Australian Stock Saddles, the first thing that you will notice is that they are suitable for many different types of work. They can be suitable for cattle work, or for starting young horses, but they are also quite suitable for everyday pleasure riding and for trail riding. It is a great saddle for endurance riding or for campdrafting competitions or stockman challenges. It is important to remember that you are looking at a very versatile saddle and that there are many great uses that you can put it to. What distinguishes Australian Stock Saddles from other saddles? In the first place, it was designed with the comfort and security of the horse and the rider in mind. It has some similarities to the English model in the design of the seat, fenders, panels and stirrups, but it has a much deeper seat and a higher cantle. It also has knee pads in the front that make it much more comfortable for people who are spending a lot of time on horseback or who are going through fairly rough terrain. A saddle blanket is used to absorb the sweat and to protect the back of the horse and in some cases, a breastplate is added to further secure the saddle. When you are thinking about whether the Australian Riding Saddles are for you, you will find that the first thing that you need to look into is getting a good fit. The seat sizes will range from fourteen inches to twenty-two inches and you will find that if you are used to shopping for Western Saddles, you should look for a size that is two sizes larger than the normal Western Model that you would purchase. Before you buy, it is worth looking at the breed and size of your horse as well as your own height and weight. Take some time to make sure that you can get the right saddle for your own tastes. Good Australian Stock Saddles are going to be something that does take some fitting, but it can make a huge difference to the way that you ride and to the comfort of your horse! Take some time to learn more about the different styles and to make sure that you are going to be able to find the right one for you.

Western Saddle: the Path From War Saddle to Stock Saddle

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 06:42:23 +0000

The western saddle has an interesting history and development. While it is now considered a uniquely American style, its origins can actually be traced back to the Moorish horsemen and warriors of the Dark Ages. When the Moors invaded Spain in the 700's, they brought with them their unique style of riding and tack. Their saddles were designed for battle, with high cantles and forks for protection and security, and longer stirrups to accommodate riding with armor. This was the saddle of the knights and the crusades.

The Spaniards adapted this saddle into what became known as the Spanish War Saddle. This was the saddle they brought with them to the New World. As their goals in this new country transitioned from military conquest to colonial expansion, this military saddle evolved into a stock saddle, known as the Spanish Stock Saddle. The stock saddle was designed as a tool for the working cowboy and followed the expansion into the American West.

The evolution of the stock saddle was greatly influenced by geography and culture. Distinct styles developed reflecting differences in climate, terrain, culture, and stock working styles. The harsh climate and punishing brush and mesquite of the southwest resulted in saddles built to protect the rider – big, bulky, plain. The mild climate and lush land of California provided the vaqueros with much more leisure time which they used for saddle decoration. Their saddles were not only smaller than the Texans, but were embellished with rich carving, lacing, and silver work.

From the 1700's through the 1950's, the western stock saddle continued to evolve, with new features to support cattle work and improved construction methods to extend strength, durability, and comfort.

Today, the needs of the working cowboy are no longer the only focus of western saddle design. Saddles are now designed for a wide variety of uses and riders – trail/pleasure, endurance, rodeo contestant, team roper, barrel racer, reiner, cutter, and, of course, working cowboy. Western saddles are now manufactured, imported, and exported all over the world. But regardless of their style or origins, all of these saddles share ancestry and derive from the western stock saddle.
