Every detail matters, and saddling your horse is no exception. In this video tip, brought to you by Cactus Ropes, Miles Baker walks through how he saddles his horses and why it matters to do it a certain way.
“I’m a stickler about how the saddle sits on a horse’s back and how it is on the pad; how they’re cinched up depending on what they’re doing. I don’t want them sitting there cinched up tight all the time if they’re not doing anything, and I don’t want my saddle loose and rolling off of them if you’re ponying them around or leading them or if they’re on the walker.”
