Bob Hickman, Being a saddle maker since 1985 teaches his knowledge in saddle fitting seminars. An hour (or) two seminar covering the  mechanics and function of saddles, interspersed with hands-on application of that information. Participants get experience evaluating saddle fit on a variety of horses including their own.

(Depending on the number of participants.)

• How Western saddles are made
• Functions of the Saddle Parts
• How the Saddle Affects the Horse
• How the Saddle Affects the Rider
• Why are there so many Problems?
• Signs of Poor Saddle Fit for the Horse
• Signs of Poor Saddle Fit for the Rider

Bob explains: That there are no true industry standards of measurements in tree widths or angles of a Western Saddle. Often, in order to market to the masses, production saddlers will call the semi-quarter horse tree a "quarter horse" tree ,so you will better assume it will fit your Quarter Horse.
