The girth straps should hang vertically into the natural girth position; for horses with muscular shoulders, you may need to place the panels slightly further back. Always perform a final check with the rider in the saddle, then ride for five minutes, recheck the fit, and make any necessary adjustments.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"theplus-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-24113\" class=\"elementor-tab-title plus-accordion-header 0\" tabindex=\"24113\" data-tab=\"13\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-24113\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"width:100%\">Common Problem Cases<\/span><span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed fa fa-plus\"><\/i><i class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened fa fa-minus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>  \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-24113\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix plus-accordion-content 0\" data-tab=\"13\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-24113\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"plus-content-editor\"><p>For very short horses with large riders, combine a larger seat size with shorter panels, often using Spanish-style panels with a larger contact surface.

Please use your bottle of HIDALGO saddle oil (or any other matching) or wax before riding in the saddle.<\/p><p>1. Begin at the back of the saddle. On the horse, feel where the spinal processes end and the muscles begin in order to establish how much space your horse needs between the panels for adequate spinal clearance. The saddle must not touch the spine. The distance between the panels at the back of the saddle is usually 4 fingers or more in width. Use the seams underneath the saddle as a guide to assist you with placing the panels equally on both sides and\/or make some marks yourself.<\/p><p>2. Create a subtle bow in the area where the withers end and meet the rest of the back. Check that there is sufficient clearance above the withers as well as freedom in the shoulder area. Do not be alarmed if the saddle sits quite high above the horse initially, the saddle will begin to mould to the horse once it is ridden in.<\/p><p>3. Check that the saddle is not tipping too far back or forward. Adjust the panels wider or narrower in the front or back as needed. If needed, insert shims into the Grandeur pad pockets in order to help balance the saddle.<\/p><p>4. It is important that the girth straps hang down straight in the correct girth position. If the horse has a very large shoulder, the panels can be placed further back in order to achieve this. It is important that the panels cover the full area below the rider\u2019s seat. Please note that the Spanish saddles have a V-girth system, it is important that the strap closest to the horse\u2019s tail is tightened a hole or two shorter than the front strap, but not more than this.<\/p><p>5. It is extremely important that the final balance of the saddle is checked with the rider in the saddle. Make any further adjustments to the saddle and then ride in the saddle for at least 5 minutes to allow the saddle to mould to the horse\u2019s back before re-checking the fit. The saddle takes 20-30 rides to fully mould to the horse\u2019s back. This does not mean that the saddle doesn\u2019t fit during those rides but rather that one will develop a closer feel for the horse\u2019s movement after the initial 20-30 rides.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"theplus-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-14711\" class=\"elementor-tab-title plus-accordion-header 0\" tabindex=\"14711\" data-tab=\"11\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-14711\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"width:100%\">Troubleshooting<\/span><span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed fa fa-plus\"><\/i><i class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened fa fa-minus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>  \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-14711\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix plus-accordion-content 0\" data-tab=\"11\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-14711\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"plus-content-editor\"><p>If you are battling to fit your HIDALGO saddle, please do not hesitate to contact us.

I believe if someone wants to offer their horse an adjustable saddle, they should have the desire to learn how to use it. By working remotely, I am able to instruct people to combine the knowledge I give them with their own hands and feel to discover what areas on their horse are sacred that we do not want to apply saddle pressure to. Most people find out that they knew very little about saddle fitting and are now more equipped to do better moving forward with any type of saddle.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"theplus-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-14730\" class=\"elementor-tab-title plus-accordion-header 0\" tabindex=\"14730\" data-tab=\"30\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-14730\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"width:100%\">What do you think makes it possible to achieve such accurate fits from afar?<\/span><span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed fa fa-plus\"><\/i><i class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened fa fa-minus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>  \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-14730\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix plus-accordion-content 0\" data-tab=\"30\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-14730\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"plus-content-editor\"><p>As much as it pains me to admit, the INTERNET and CELL PHONES make it possible to achieve accurate fits.

Also, receiving feedback from the horse and articulating what they are trying to communicate with us is great feedback as well. Oftentimes, I receive feedback from body workers, chiropractors, trainers, DVM&#8217;s, or any other sort of professional inside their horse team with positive changes within after switching to a Hidalgo leather tree saddle.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"theplus-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-14731\" class=\"elementor-tab-title plus-accordion-header 0\" tabindex=\"14731\" data-tab=\"31\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-14731\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"width:100%\">What inspires you personally about working with Hidalgo and promoting these saddles?<\/span><span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed fa fa-plus\"><\/i><i class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened fa fa-minus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>  \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-14731\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix plus-accordion-content 0\" data-tab=\"31\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-14731\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"plus-content-editor\"><p>I will be transparent here.
