DP Western Saddles – Information & Options

Use this guide to understand the main choices on a DP western saddle so you can match the tree, seat, leather, and rigging to your horse and how you ride.

Key Technical Options

Saddle Trees

Wooden Trees (rawhide or fiberglass covered)

Traditional, rigid tree.
Suitable for reining, cutting, barrel racing, ranch work, and more.

Pro-Flex Trees (fixed width)

Rigid fork in several sizes (e.g. S, M, L, XL).
Designed for many western disciplines, but not recommended for roping.

Flex-Fit Trees (adjustable width)

Fork width adjusted with an Allen wrench system.
Semi-flexible bars designed to move with the horse.
Excellent for fine-tuning fit; not recommended for roping.

Ask which tree styles are available on the specific model you’re looking at and which is best for your horse’s back shape and discipline.

Quick Reference

Use this side as a quick checklist when you’re picking out or custom-ordering a DP western saddle.

Tree: Wooden · Pro-Flex · Flex-Fit

Seat: Standard or Equitation style

Fenders: Short · Medium · Long · Extra long

Leather: Nappa · Nubuck/Aspen · Special colors

Rigging: In-skirt · 7/8 · 3/4 · 1/2 (varies by model)

Look: Border or basket tooling · Seat shape · Trim options

If you’re unsure, start with how you ride (trail, performance, ranch, show) and your horse’s back type, then narrow down tree and rigging first. Seats, fenders, and tooling come next.

Good Questions to Ask

Which tree style is best for my horse’s back and my discipline?
Can I adjust the tree width later (Flex-Fit) if my horse changes condition?
What fender length do you recommend for my leg length?
Is this rigging position a good match for my horse’s girth area?
Which seat leather and shape will give me the security or freedom I want?
Which tooling and trim options are available on this exact model?
