Does anyone have any experience with Thorowgood Griffin Saddles or Wintec 500's / 2000's? Any comments good or bad would be appreciated.
I'm looking for a saddle for a friend, ideally she would like to go treeless but can't afford one at the moment. Her horse has fairly high withers and has a fair amount of muscle wastage in his back area, but is also fairly broad backed. His current saddle does not fit, bridges quite badly and is tight on his withers. He has recently started bucking too, which i believe is down to the saddle fit, not behavioural as i've ridden him in a bareback pad and he was fine.
Any other suggestions??
