Meetings in Montana

There is a buzz going through the Back Country Horseman’s Club here in Libby, MT.   With Tim Auer and I both getting a new trail saddle from Steele there is an interest in seeing them.  With two old-timers who have so much horse background they have taken notice.

On April 26th our club is sponsoring a vaccination clinic that attracts 60 to 70 horses at the area and on May 10th we have our annual first get-together and trail ride/membership breakfast at the Sheldon Mountain Trail head close to Libby.  We will show our new Steele Saddles there.   It will be a good opportunity for Steele to have exposure.

The snow is going fast and the creeks are going back into their banks. – Rocky Schauer of Libby, MT

– Thank you Rocky.  You will have your saddles in time for these events.  We appreciate any photos and information you can send us about your experiences with our Steele Trail Saddles and consider it an honor for you to show them to your fellow trail riders.

Thank you,

Eric & Fred

Steele Trail Saddles are Perfect!

It’s the perfect saddle! I have been riding for over 40 years and in all kinds of saddles and I have never sat in a saddle that was as comfortable or easy on the body as this one. I highly recommend Steele Saddles to anyone that wants to spend time in a saddle. Also, the makers are informative, nice, and willing to please their customers. – Tracey

– Thank you so much Tracey for your kind words. God Bless, Eric.

Thank You Steele Trail Saddles!

I own four Steele Saddles and love all of them. I have ridden from Logansport, Louisiana to Houston, Texas; 216 miles one way many, many, times on these Steele Saddles. To the Houston Livestock Show, with the Old Spanish Trail Ride. Seven days in the saddle. Your horse will love these saddles too because they are light and comfortable for you and the horse. Every body that likes to ride should try one of these saddles. – Randal from Shreveport, LA

–  Randal thank you for that incredible testimony. Fred and I really appreciate hearing that. I agree, if you are in the saddle for one hour or ten hours you should be comfortable . The horses appreciate it also . Thanks and God Bless, Eric.

California to Texas on a Steele Mountaineer Trail Saddle

As I was getting ready to begin my ride from California to Texas, I knew I would need a special saddle.  I have a lot of trouble with my left knee which has been broken twice and with my right leg which was broken two years ago.  I needed to find a saddle that had a free swinging fender to allow a full range of motion for my legs.  I found it in the Steele Moutaineer.  It is an endurance saddle and mine was in the western style.  It was also a concern that I was riding a Quarter Horse with low withers and a wide back.  This saddle was perfect. I had full contact with my horse because there is not a log of heavy skirting as on my western saddle.  In combination with a saddle pad that had full side silicone gel inserts, it was a fabulous fit on my horse.  I never had a single minute of pain in my legs, even after grueling 25 mile days in extremely rugged terrain.  My horse was never sore backed from the saddle.  It has a deep seat and more than enough dee rings to attach additional gear.  The saddle stayed in place no matter how steep the trail was up or down.  IT is the most comfortable saddle I have ever ridden, bar none.  Steele saddles come in a variety of styles, both English and Western style.  They have something to fit every need.  I recommend them highly.  Check them out at www.steelesaddle.com
