round skirt or square skirt?
for barrel racing would u rather have a round skirted saddle or a square skirted saddle? does it really matter? and y did u pik the one u chose. thanks!
not to brag or anything but mi horse has only knocked a barrel once and that was only because i was kicking him rite around the 3rd and mi leg hit it.. but other than knocking would it really matter?
yes mi horse is abnormally very long and stocky..
its a bob marshall treeless barrel racing saddle.. thats all i ever use
If your horse has an average to long back, then you can choose whichever skirt of saddle you prefer. If he's a bit short backed, then a round skirt will fit him better.
And this will depend greatly on each individual saddle. Some are longer in general and take up more space on the horse's back, some are built shorter in style.
For pleasure riding and showing Western the current style is a square skirt saddle. The one advantage to a square skirt is - you will probably find resale easier due to the current fashion. Round skirt saddles are used on Arabs, Morgans and other short backed horses even for showing and pleasure riding. For games many people do use round skirts. Whether you end up trying a round or square skirt, make sure you try it on your horse, and do lots of bending and flexing with someone watching from the ground so they can tell you if the skirt is bumping your horse on the hip, or pressing onto the top of their back.
