English Saddles Are Stylish And Functional
English saddles are one of the most popular types of saddles available on the market today, second perhaps to western saddles. The main distinction between English saddles and western saddles is that western saddles have a horn, while English saddles do not. Whichever saddle type a rider chooses, its function is still the same: to keep the rider and his or her horse from getting hurt. English saddles are used in all of the Olympic equestrian events. This type of saddle has become more accepted than its western counterpart and is used for most official events and formal occasions. Whether for official purposes or leisure purposes, the job of the saddle is still the same. Protecting the rider is the most important function of saddles.
