I have a Gypsy Vanner...That I went through 9 saddles in a year and a half. Not one fit him. One saddle fitter of 50 years came out and tried to fit him...and literally laughed out loud when he saw him. He is a propane tank on legs. He said to me "i have access to 2000 saddles and I don't have one that will fit him". I ended up riding him bareback for close to 2 years because he was miserable in every saddle...or they just rolled off of him at the walk. The amazing thing about Allegany Mountain Trail Saddles is that they send you a series of 9-11 trees to try on your horse before building the saddle. Just the tree...no leather or any rigging. What an eye opening experience. It really shows you how badly "off the rack" saddles fit most horses...forget hard to fit horses. They ended up making a custom tree for my boy...and it fits like a glove. It is amazingly stable and for the first time I have a saddle that doesn't roll off at the walk. Or that he is miserable in. I am ordering another one for my second little girl Gypsy. You will love the whole experience...and most of all you and your horse will LOVE your new saddle. And as an added bonus...It is one of the most beautifully crafted, quality saddles that I have ever seen.

My saddle arrived today! I don't know if there are words exactly to tell you just how thrilled I am with the workmanship of the saddle. It is absolutely stunning from the carving to all the little details. You folks know how to make a saddle right!! This has been such a pleasant experience working with the both of you. Tomorrow I will take it for it's maiden voyage and let you know how my horses like it. I will send you pictures of it on both of them in case you want to use it for your website or testimonials. Again thank you ladies for making this customer feel so taken care of. You both are incredibly professional wonderful people and I certainly will recommend you to my friends. Be Blessed!

Hi Melinda & Staci, The saddle arrived safely on June 30 in time for the holiday. It is so wonderful!!! I just love the new style of stirrups and also the low-rise seat. The tooling & workmanship are very handsome, and Scout has a perfect sweat pattern every time! I’m so eager to put lots of miles on it. Thanks so much for such an outstanding product!

I just have to say a tremendously grateful THANK YOU for our new saddle! Our Percheron cross mare Ladyhawke works with children who have been through trauma at our non-profit, Mercy Spring Ranch. She is big, black, beautiful, and every little girl's dream, but she has the shoulders of a moose! After 5 years of a string of ill-fitting saddles to "just get by with" (She gets trained and worked by me in a custom dressage saddle), we finally raised enough money to have her fitted professionally for her AMTS! Today was her first ride in it and she worked like she NEVER has in a western saddle, willingly moving forward and stretching for the bit, as though she was in her dressage saddle! Here's a little video a friend took on my phone just a few minutes into her first ride: https://www.facebook.com/monique.black1/videos/10157767886335377/ Also, I have to tell you, this saddle is SO comfortable! I can't wait to do a long trail ride in it! Plus, it is tremendously beautiful! All that to say, THANK YOU for making our Hawke happy at last!

Halloween ride in our Custom trail saddle we bought 3 years ago! Still loving it and the deep seat comes in handy for some of these spooky costumes!

Here's my 20-year old Arabian Khemistry (Jack) in his new AMT saddle. Jack has been a real challenge to fit - very broad, asymmetrical shoulders -- but Stacy went out of her way to get the job done! WE BOTH thank you!!!!

I ordered my new saddle last year. I'm in Scotland. I'll admit to being a bit daunted by the whole process as I had never had a Western before. Thanks to the expert eye of Staci and the great customer service of her lovely team, I am now delighted with my beautiful saddle and more importantly, my boy is happy wearing it and looks fantastic. I'd have no hesitation recommending this company.

Sally Schulbach Hurt received my new saddle this past Friday. The next day I put it on my hard to fit mare and was immediately impressed by how well it fit her. Previously whenever I would mount up, the first few steps were always accompanied by a swishing tail and attitude. Not this time. Not one swish, just calmly moved out! Wow! Just simply wow! Thank you so much!

Here is my Cascade Wade on my 25 year old mule Max. He's still got his winter coat so I will post a picture again in June when he is shining. First ride I was instantly pleased at how comfortable the saddle is. It seems to fit just fine, and I REALLY like how light it is just 25.5 pounds
