OVER THE YEARS, WE HAVE DESIGNED AND INTRODUCED MANY DIFFERENT SADDLE STYLES THAT WERE NEVER PREVIOUSLY OFFERED TO THE GAITED HORSE. AS A FORMER WORLD CHAMPION IN OBSTACLE COURSE, MY GOAL WAS TO DEVELOP A SADDLE THAT OFFERED ALL THE COMPONENTS I HAD FOUND ESSENTIAL FOR TRAINING AND RIDING THE GAITED HORSE, WHILE PROVIDING THE ULTIMATE IN COMFORT AND SECURITY FOR THE RIDER. THE BUTTERFLY SKIRT SADDLE WAS INTRODUCED IN 2009 AND IS NOW OUR MOST POPULAR DESIGN. THIS SADDLE IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR $999. YOU WILL NOT FIND ANOTHER GAITED SADDLE WITH THESE FEATURES AND PRICE ANYWHERE!!! SOME OF THE SPECIAL FEATURES OF THIS SADDLE ARE: 1) NEW SKIRT DESIGN- IT FEATURES BUTTERFLY SKIRTS- THE SKIRTING BEHIND THE FENDER IS CUT AWAY TO ALLOW MAXIMUM CONTACT WITH YOUR HORSE. THIS IS EXTREMELY HELPFUL WHEN TEACHING YOUR HORSE LEG CUES. 2) RIGGING IS POSITIONED SO THAT YOU CAN DO TRADITIONAL RIGGING WHICH ALLOWS FREE SWING OF THE STIRRUP, AND PREVENTS THE GIRTH FROM BEING UNDERNEATH YOUR LEG. WHEN TEACHING AND USING LEG CUES THIS IS EXTREMELY BENEFICIAL. 3)3-POINT RIGGING- THE SADDLE IS ALSO DESIGNED SO THAT YOU CAN DO THE ENDURO-BALANCED OR 3 POINT RIGGING. SO, YOU HAVE A CHOICE OF TRADITIONAL RIGGING WITH A REAR GIRTH OR THE ENDURO BALANCED RIGGING WITH NO REAR GIRTH. BELOW YOU CAN SEE PICS OF THE SAME SADDLE RIGGED IN BOTH WAYS. |

| SMOKEY OF OMNI MOUNTAIN HORSES ABOVE IN A BUTTERFLY SKIRT SADDLE. HIS OWNER SENT THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: I just wanted to let you know how much Smokey & I like the Dixieland butterfly saddle. I've ridden it twice already for team penning competitions. The close contact design is great for fast turns and swift lateral movements for working cattle in the arena. THANKS, CATHERINE HANSON |
| THIS IS MY NEWEST SADDLE AND HAS ROUGHOUT LEATHER ON THE REAR SKIRTING AND JOCKEY. WE OFFER THE ROUGH OUT LEATHER LIKE THIS SADDLE IN MEDIUM AND DARK OIL (LIKE THIS SADDLE) FOR AN ADDITIONAL $75. |
