It all depends on what saddle it is and how strong you are....;) To me, I have to admit its not that heavy....you decide;) I understand what you are saying, but it really depends on the size of the saddle. The bigger inched saddles are heavier than the smaller inched saddles. Some saddles are from 11' inches all the way to 36' inches. The bigger are mostly always heavier! Your welcome!
to measure a saddle you need a measuring tape and follow these steps: 1: put the tape on the D ring on the pommel of the saddle(the rind at the front of the saddle) 2: now measure from the D rind to the middle of the cantle (the back of the saddle) 3: now in inches write down the recording! NOTE: THIS ONLY WORKS FOR ENGLISH STYLE SADDLES! NOT WESTERN STYLE!
I would do a close contact saddle or for western, a tree less saddle
