Adjustable Position Close Contact Rigging
Standard Front Rigging on all GEN II Trail Saddles and the #259 Mule Saddle

This rigging eliminates bulk under the rider's leg and allows the saddle to be rigged in the full, 7/8 or 3/4 position.
Full position provides greatest stability to the front of the saddle. A rear cinch is used to stabilize the back.
3/4 position offers the most stability in a single rigging, stabilizing both front and back.
7/8 position is the most commonly used position for trail riding, providing enough stability to the front of the saddle without interfering with the horse's movement.

Choosing the Proper Cinch Length for Tucker Saddles

• Tuckers Western Style and EBR rigging styles are all drop riggings. If you are currently using western drop rigging, your current cinch length should be fine. If you are currently using in-skirt western rigging, you should order a cinch 2-4" shorter than your current cinch.
• If you are currently riding an English hunter saddle and ordering a Tucker saddle with western or EBR rigging, you may need to subtract up to 8" from your current cinch length. If you are currently riding an English dressage saddle and ordering a Tucker saddle with western or EBR rigging, you current cinch length should be adequate.
• If you are currently riding an English hunter saddle and ordering a Tucker saddle with English rigging, you may need to subtract up to 4" from your current cinch length. If you are currently riding an English dressage saddle and ordering a Tucker saddle with English rigging, you may need to add up to 4" to your current cinch length.
• Please note that the above is not a guarantee of cinch fit. Without being able to fit your saddle to your horse, we cannot recommend an exact cinch length.
• All Tucker cinches are neoprene.
