Saddle Fitting

At Bahr Saddlery we are very pleased to offer a Saddle Fitting Service to our customers by a professional saddle fitter. This service is to achieve an accurate fit for both you and your horse. Our professional saddle fitting service offers sound honest advice, which is provided for riders and horses of all different levels, disciplines, fits and budgets. We also provide a custom templating service at a minimal cost to ensure the best fit for you and your horse.

We travel to stables within a certain radius of our store. The cost of the service is based on mileage plus a flat service rate. Please call for pricing.

An appropriate amount of time is spent with the horse, rider and saddle(s) in order to fully appraise the fit. When fitting a saddle our fitters need a flat riding surface and the horse to be ridden by its rider. Some minor adjustments can be done on-site, however most re-flocking cases will need to be completed at the Bahr Saddlery workshop at our Hornby location.
