You can use a western style thick felt pad when saddling a horse. Felt is good for when a horse may be getting into a sweaty situation; it will help wick that off. Learn basic horsemanship from a ranch owner, trainer and instructor in this free video.

  • @bubbysacuty that one cost $100 dollars and the blue blanket cost 45 dollars(:

  • how much did the saddle pad cost.?

    

  • most people dont even use them, there good for barrels though

  • its not a back girth its a bucking strap to help keep the saddle down and even

  • What kind of saddle is that? O_O I've never seen a back girth...

  • What's the point of a back girth?

  • @tikicourtney Horses shouldn't really get angry if its a little too tight. You want to make it pretty tight so it doesn't fall off during your ride. So make it pretty tight incase it was to loosen during your ride it will still be on pretty good. So make it pretty tight, then buckle it and do what she says, sorry I'm not much of help but ya know! lol :D

  • @MrsCullenJankowski hahhaha lol yea my eyes are always doing that to me O_O
