Lexie in the EZ boots before they broke. Yeah. She's in the Jenny Craig paddock right now.

I am looking at buying a Courbette saddle for my downhill, big-shouldered, no-withered, oaf of a horse.  I like the idea of a Courbette, particularly the Alpina , because the Swiss made ones have that...on ebay right now that's tempting me.  Horsetackreview.com is kind of vague, SO what are your general opinions of Courbettes?  Do you love them or should I stay far far away? Finn and I thank you!

I am officially/unofficially looking for a new saddle to replace my trusty 150 year old Crosby Prix De Nations. I never thought I'd see the day, but it's either find a new saddle or find the world's best...anyone have any recommendations for specific models I should look into? I'd love to keep it under $1000, but I also want this saddle to last as long as my last one, so I'm willing to pay for quality

I am an unabashed tack GEEK. If it were at all marginably profitable, I'd either have an online store stocked with the best sort of items I find or work as a sales rep for the companies I REALY believe...the touchy area of supplements.
