This was so useful. My mom has never had a horses so I’m learning by tutorials on how to train them and take care of them. IVE DONE PRE RESEARCH!!)) but now I can clean my saddle!!
I watch a lot of videos on horsemanship, but you are my “go-to”. I see you as an expert and a trusted friend. Thank you❣️ Very helpful video.
I’m cleaning my western saddle that I haven’t used in 40 years but I did have it completely restored and then stored in my parent’s basement where it started to mildew. Now I have just bought a 40,000 acre ranch in south west Texas, and I don’t want a four wheeler to patrol/ survey the ranch. I have never tried an English saddle I just always hopped on bare back and rode back to the barn to saddle up, or went without for my daily ride. I’m the type of person that if I want to disappear on my own property for a few days or weeks and not be bothered I will just me my horse and a rifle or two. If my presents is required try smoke signals I will investigate smoke. Good tips on cleaning I was just going to use saddle soap. And after it dries out Neatsfoot oil.

I find tack cleaning to be very relaxing and therapeutic. I usually sit in front of the TV and just clean away.
LOL as did I! Its been quite a few years but im finally taking steps to get back to my heart and souls desire..to have horses in my life again!!
I grew up riding western. I just got an Aussie saddle. I am so excited to get it on my horse and try it out.
I cleaned a bunch of saddles for the first time at the barn this week, I did not see this video yet, however next week bridles are on the list and I shall take these tips to it.
I currently ride western, I’ve only been riding a little more than 6 months so I’ve been trying to get the foundations down. I am hoping to try English in the future though I am pretty happy where I am and I’m glad I started with western since I’ve had a injury that’s forced me to do quite a bit of single reining and the lesson horse I ride did cattle cutting so he’s well accustomed to it.
Thank you for sharing knowledge
Thank you this really helped I recently got my saddle and have been looking to take better care of it!!!
Thank you so much for making this! Me and my daughter are new horse owners, and we didn’t know how to Clean tack and this helped out so much!
.
I've never ridden on an English saddle but I'd love to try!!
Another tip is to clean underneath your saddle as that is where all the sweat from the saddle pad goes 😉
I have never ridden western before but I would love to try it out!! By the way I love this video it definitely helps a lot
Thank you!
I am loving these basics uploads!! Im always curious about what is the best products to try out! I love saddle soap and never dull but i like to try ones ive never used before. Thank you for all the helpful advice!!
this is so great and informative video. I prefer English saddle..it's good...Btw your videos r so cool and inspiring...keep the hard work on..Thanks...Bye
I have a western saddle ( i have never used it before) but I ride english at my riding school!
You are very underrated! Although I know how to clean me saddle, I really appreciate all of this.
Thank you!
Can you also do a video on how to install a nameplate on a saddle (or other tack)? And thank you for this video! Not a lot of information out there on how to take care of your tack.
Turns out I'll need to wait a little longer to bring my new boy home- had to take him to a veterinary hospital last week. He stabilized and seems to be moving in the right direction
I’ll be praying for him!
@@CarmellaAbel Thank you!
I only know how to ride english but western looks interesting and fun
I grew up riding western, but I have ridden English once or twice. I really want to get into Fox Hunting.
I just switched from western to English. Main reason? I'm 68 and now have trouble lifting the heavier western saddles. I was pleasantly surprised hiw much I liked the English saddle!
I've only ever ridden Western, but someday if like to try English!
Once you’ve ridden English, you’ll think that western is so comfortable!
@@CarmellaAbel trust her she is right. I started western but when I tried English I missed the comfortable western saddle
I'm riding English now and your need a good amount of core, knee, and thigh muscles.
I ride both English and western
I like western, but I dont always care.
(Its horseback riding what else can you wish for?)
A fast question! How often should you do this? After every ride, every other, once a week, etc. I didn’t understand when you first said: do it regularly and then that you shouldn’t always do it. Otherwise thank you this was very useful!!
She said ones A week but ig u can do it 2 times in 1 month (4 weeks, 2 times) that's not so often and not so less
I like both and I ride both
I ride English. I think its more comfortable. I used to ride Western, than got used to riding English, and stuck with it LOL!
Australian stock saddle
I am biased because I ride Western, but I prefer the Western saddle. It feels a lot more secure, and I like having the horn to grab if I start falling.
Western ❤️
I’m the opposite. I grew up in a western saddle but switched to English. I find it to be way more comfortable.
I ride western but English looks rally fun.
Any tips on how to clean a moldy saddle?
How does it go with a barn dusty saddle. That's what I need help on.
I ride western
I got a new horse and I need to know how to measure her for a good saddle. Do you have any tips or tricks? I prefer a english Saddle. Also loved the video it was very helpful!
The best way to see how a saddle fits is by putting it on the horse. I’ve found saddles that are the exact measurements I needed, but just didn’t sit right. People will usually let you do saddle trials where you can put the saddle on your horse and see how it fits. Read up on fitting the gullet and the length of the saddle. If these measurements are off, they can do serious damage to the horse. Let me know if this helps!
@@CarmellaAbel Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Aussie western 🐎
Weston
I’m a western girl but always think about borrowing another boarders english saddle to trail ride, but then think I would probably feel more comfortable and “deep” in my western seat(??) Your thoughts?
western 4 sure

I ride in Australian made stock saddles on stock horses for mustering cattle. Not the Indian made versions which are bad for the horses back, and poorly made.
How long does horse tack usually stay clean for until you can’t use it anymore?
I prefer English cause that’s what I was always taught and I hate having the horn especially for new riders cause they grab in the horn then the can’t properly balance by themselves❤️🐴✨😀
I haven’t got to talk to take care of horse I have a little bit but I’m in we learn how to ride question because the person is teach me as a western person come from Texas she’s my cousin so but I’m definitely going for two prefer question because I’ll be afraid to jump the worst yes I want to Resa for a couple years when I get older like a
So i first started riding in dressage, but then when i started lessons i used western.I strongly dislike it (maybe it’s just cause i’m not used to it but anyways that’s not the point) so one day i asked if she had any english tack and she said yes.I totally forgot about jumping saddles so I was really excited when she said i could use english but i didn’t know i would be going on a jumping saddle. It was super weird. I almost fell off lol
Yes, once you ride western, English feels so uncomfortable and insecure!
Hey do you guys know any websites or apps to find trained horses
Hi Gabriella! I usually follow local Facebook groups to see horses for sale. Dream horse is a good website to use
You told us you bought your tack used. Can you tell us how to make sure it is the right fit for your horse?
i really like western but i usaly ride english
How often should I clean my tack
I think she said later in the video at least once a week.
I usually ride English. I have actually never ridden Western if I think about it.
Her: luckily it’s not shedding season!
Me: *sigh* it’s always shedding season when you own a grey
I like to put my stirrups and bit in the dishwasher.
I use Aussie saddles thats like the English saddle only our one's are better lol
😂 I’ve always wanted to try an Aussie saddle; I’ve heard that they’re comfortable!
I want to ride but I can’t. I like the look of English better. But I bet western is good too.
Do yall know anyone with a horse for sale or anyone who would want to trade for a mini mule thats kid safe rides and does a little bit of liberty
I would suggest checking Equinenow.com
They might have something there
@@hotshot_rae Thanks
You can rub that conditioner on your boots as well young lady but you knew that didn't ya
Yes! I use my saddle cleaner on my boots as well!
The saddle is already clean :( I bet you'd get a heart attack if you'd see my yunk saddle, where I can't get the grease off no matter what I do.... and It's super dry also, even though I use oil
I prefer English. I think it is more comfortable than western.
Im not a fan of english idk how to ride in one i fall off every time
english
I like English better... it’s just overall easier to handle for me :)
You're all that and a super-size bag of chips, want to be youtube friends?
Love English Saddles only....pretty much hate western saddles, feels like someone but a super heavy and stiff chair on top of a horse....Urghh
She talks too much
