Best Answer

It enabled horsemen to ride horses and thus increase their military effectiveness.

The saddle, and especially the stirrup, allowed the horseman to remain on the horse under strenuous riding conditions when the bareback rider may have fallen off.

Does bona Allen have a number 50111 saddle?

I just came into possession of a saddle with the 50111 number on a leather tag attached to the left front leather rosette. Like you, I suspect it is a Bona Allen, but with no makers mark it is hard to say. Bona Allen did make saddles for Sears & Roebuck from the 1930's t thru the 50's. You probably know this but maybe it could help. If, by any chance, you have already positively identified the saddle maker, could you verify for me that it is Bona Allen? Thanks

What is equivalent to western saddle horn on English saddle?

There is no equivalent to a saddle horn on an English saddle. The English saddle has no horn to any equivalent. The Western saddle was made for the cowboys, who needed something to help anchor the rope to after roping a cow. This is where the Western saddle was invented, designed for comfort for long days of hard riding in the saddle, and for usefulness, which is why it has all the little straps to tie things to, perfect room for saddle bags and such, and with the saddle horn having the direct purpose of dallying the rope. The English saddle was not used by cowboys, and therefore, there was no use for a saddle horn, so there is nothing there.
