Pack Saddles
In addition to the Decker pack saddle, we have two versions of Sawbuck Pack Saddles, a nylon and a leather rigged model. Both are rigged on a wooden humane pack tree. The Decker pack saddle is single rigged, with hip drops and quarter straps.
The advantages of packing with one of these saddles is, unlike a western saddle they have a breast strap and britchen built right into them. The ability to hold the load in place, along with being lighter weight than a western saddle, enables you to carry more gear.
We recommend the Sawbuck style pack saddle if the saddle would be used on multiple animals. The Decker can be custom fit to a specific animal. This custom fit along with the half breed rigging, disperses the weight evenly providing more comfort for the pack animal.
