Received my Steele Trail Saddle demo Saturday. It sure looks different. The tree was specifically made to fit my hard to fit Tennessee Walking Horse (TWH). The demo program works like this: First, you send several pictures to custom Steele Trail saddles. Second, they make a tree they think will fit, tack on a little leather for comfort and you ride the nearly bare tree. Third, send more pictures and Steele will tweak the fit for you and your horse. Fourth, mail the tree back and they will build you a custom saddle.
Day 1: demo ride with bare tree. Wow. 3+ hour ride. Most comfortable saddle I have ever ridden. Absolutely no back, knee or leg pain. Happy rider, happy horse.” Lo and behold, a perfect saddle. – Lennie Young Machen
