Bates are nice. I just bought a butet for the lesson program too and I'm obsessed with it. If it was an inch bigger I might hoard it for myself but as it is it's perfect for the kiddos.
the best saddle fitter i ever worked with was someone who was entirely independent of any brand, i don't think i would trust a specific brand to fit a saddle to my horse, they're just gonna sell you the closest thing *they* have and not bother with other brands and their fitting
That makes sense, Top. My trainer's sponsored by devacoux so we get a lot of their saddles, and it definitely just depends on the rep. CWD's reps barely get any training, which is part of the problem, but if you get somebody that is knowledgeable then you'll be in better hands.
though i will say for the price tag i don't think i would recommend cwds to most people, you can get excellent saddles for a fraction of the cost. i have a pessoa as well that i loved, but it was re-fitted to my mare who had a weird back and couldn't be used on most horses
im planning on selling it though and buying a nice western one though because english is not my jam and my current western saddle doesn't fit my horse anymore lol but its super nice so im just gonna keep it and i bet eventually ill get a horse that does fit it
i mean i used to work full time in the h/j world and two of the barns i worked for were cwd sponsored, meaning all clients got custom cwds. never heard any complaints from clients about fit for either them or their horses. maybe we were lucky and had a better rep than most? mine is fit to me but a general "warmblood" tree since i used it for catch riding. i might be an outlier but i do prefer bulkier saddles because they're easier on my bad hips.
