Likes Received: 30. A few years ago I bought a Passier saddle and I want to know more about it. Ben 10 protector of earth. It has a number on it (not sure what it is at the moment but will look in a few when I go to the barn).
17 inch Passier Saddle made in Hannover Germany With Knee Blocks Good Condition $300 Firm Has anyone ever heard of this type of saddle? Would it be recommended?
Is $300 a good price for this? (Remember I'm in Ontario) Any input would be greatly appreciated The purple is the e-mail I received from her about the saddle. It's an all-purpose that I've had for over 10years, it's been used on a variety of of horses, with different body shapes.
The last horse to use it was a 16'1 Thoroughbred with lots of withers. I'm also looking at a used Griffith Elite Leather Saddle, $300 used, but it comes with a bridle, reins, 50' girth, and stirrups with leathers. She's only had it for one year and neg. On the price.
The Passier is firm on the price and 10 years old.Which would you recommend? I can't find any information on the Griffith saddle, and the only information that I can find on the Passier saddles (without any exact model) is $2000 and up, so I figured it would be a decent saddle. What should I be looking for? She told me I can give it a try first. Return it if it doesn't fit. My only concern is that it's a wide tree, and I know the horse it's going to fit is medium tree. She said she had it on a Thoroughbred with high withers, so it might fit.not too sure, though.
Cookie doesn't have high withers, but she's Paint/Thoroughbred cross and a little on the chubby side, so it might fit okay. Decisions, decisions.lol. I went to look at the Passier saddle, and unfortunately, it was VERY worn I think the price was high for the condition that it was in. I am looking at a different one, just waiting for a reply. I was asking my BO if she'd recommend a saddle for me, or for what to look for at least, and she said dressage. I am just wanting something to play around in.
I prefer the english style, just because I really like the fact that I can feel what my horse is doing without any bulk of a western saddle. I do like the idea of an aussie saddle, so I found this one. I'm not too sure what the quality is like, so I was wondering if anyone uses this particular saddle? She told me it is similar to dressage feel when sitting in it. I can't find very many comments for this particular saddle. Any help is much appreciated!
