 Fitting Photos
 

      The following information covers photos we find helpful in determining a potential saddle choice for a customer 

A good side conformation shot taken on level ground with the horse square. (Picture 1) Please do show the whole horse. That gives us a good idea of things like length of back, shoulder angle and girth spot. If you have taken wither tracings at the same time, a photo that shows the identifying chalk marks of where you took the tracings are a bonus. (Picture 2)

         


A picture of you sitting in the saddle that you are currently using, on the horse that you are trying to fit is also helpful. Please identify the make, model and size of the saddle. (PICTURE 3)


Please try to select your pictures carefully. Too many pictures are confusing to us also! Out of focus photos and horses that are not standing square should be eliminated. Please do not send videos or pictures of your friend’s horses, saddles, or horses that look like your horse!!!

Please try to minimize the size of your pictures to about 100KB- huge picture files take along time to load!

 

The information that we need….

1) Your name, address, phone number and email address.

2) Your height and weight and length of leg

3) Your horses height

4) The discipline that you are riding

5) The seat size of saddles that you have ridden in

6) Saddles that you and your horse have particularly liked or disliked

7) Any significant areas of damage or soundness issues that you are aware

of.

8) A current wither and back tracing (see instructions on our website)

Please make sure the tracings are labeled with your name and your horse’s name.

Please label your email with your name and the horse’s name in the subject line of your email.

Our saddle trial policy is both simple and risk free. We invite you to try any of our saddles, new or used for one week before you make your decision to buy. At Trumbull Mt Tack our sole mission is to help you find the perfect saddle for both you and your horse. Simply call us at 800-442-9672 and tell us which of our saddles you would like to try. We will ask you for your credit card and shipping information. We will bill your card for the cost of the saddle and $35.00 shipping and handling. When you receive your saddle feel free to put your fittings on it and ride in it for one week. If you decide a saddle isn't quite right for you for any reason, just ship it back to us and when we receive it we will credit your card for all but the $35.00 shipping fee.
