LEADING THE WAY IN DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING For 30 years Tucker has dedicated themselves to the development, design and manufacturing of trail saddles that would provide the ultimate in comfort for both the rider and horse. Tucker Trail Saddles are the standard in quality and style for trail riders throughout the world. Today Tucker Trail Saddles are available through a growing number of authorized dealers all around the United States and other parts of the world. Master Craftsmanship As the market leader we are constantly researching, developing and implementing the latest in design and technology to provide you with the best possible trail saddles available. Our philosophy is to disregard tradition any time the end product can be improved. With this in mind, in 2007 Tucker proudly introduced the GEN II Trail Saddles - the Next Generation of Ultimate Trail Comfort. New for 2008 are an even bigger selection of trail saddles with more GEN II styles as well as a new style developed from an existing favorite. Tucker s team of experienced saddle makers are dedicated to the ancient art of saddle making. These craftsmen are committed to preserving the tradition and progressing the technology of saddle mastership. Quality Materials No shortcuts are taken when selecting raw materials for our saddles. We use world-class leather, hardware, and trees that are precisely made to our specifications and guidelines from the finest tanneries and hardware manufacturers in the world. The Tucker trademark is a symbol of quality. Our saddle leather is durable yet supple, with a beautiful rich appearance. Natural range marks enhance the quality and provide assurance of genuine top-grain leather. We use hardware that will resist rust and corrosion because saddle hardware is subjected to sweat, rain, stress, and other abuses. Our trees are made of wood and covered with DURAhide. They are designed to fit the horse properly and provide ample strength while being as lightweight as possible. Tucker saddle skirts are lined with our genuine wool felt skirt lining. Why wool felt? This lining offers tremendous natural shock absorbing padding to the horse as well as many years of durable protection for the saddle. It does not pack down like fleece creating hard points against your horse. Innovative Design Tucker s skilled craftsmen are consumer focused in their approach to saddle design. By combining generations of horse knowledge and many years of saddle making experience, our craftsmen have designed a series of saddles that are specifically crafted to meet the needs of both the horse and rider. With special thanks, In 1978 when I started building one of a kind saddles in my parent s garage, I never dreamed the Tucker saddle brand would become what it is today. Over the last 30 years, we have manufactured 10s of thousands of saddles. We have outfitted police departments, border patrols, equestrian schools, riders that have traveled from coast to coast, and literally thousands of individuals that share a common love for riding the trails. On behalf of the entire Tucker Trail Saddle team, I want to express my sincere appreciation to each and every one of our devoted customers for allowing us to share in your equestrian passion. Our hope is the comfort of our products has increased the pleasure of your riding experience and that Tucker Trail Saddles will continue to be your equipment of choice.

All Tucker Saddles feature the Patented Gel-Cush Shock Absorbing Seat This unique feature provides the trail rider unequalled comfort for long hours in the saddle. Tucker Saddle Riggings ENDURO-BALANCED RIGGINGS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED FOR 18.5 SEAT ENDURO-BALANCED RIDE RIGGING* WITH SINGLE TIE This rigging design offers the flexibility of a front dee conventional attachment as well as the front to rear balanced ride attachment. When using the front to rear attachment this rigging design offers a unique extra secure fit. It s great for rough terrain riding. ENDURO-BALANCED RIDE RIGGING* WITH DOUBLE TIE This is the same as the single tie version of the ENDURO- BALANCED RIDE RIGGING only using two separate billets to buckle to the girth. (This rigging requires an English type girth with 1 1/4 buckles.) * Visit www.tuckersaddles.com for rigging instructions. * Some riggings require an additional charge on some saddles. DOUBLE DEE DROP WESTERN RIGGING This rigging design features a conventional western tie strap and off billet but is dropped in a lower position to offer less rider obstruction and closer contact. (The rear girth set is optional at an additional cost.) FULL POSITION 3/4 POSITION 7/8 POSITION BALANCED RIDE ENGLISH BILLET RIGGING* The billets are 1 wide and plenty long for ample adjustment. Uses standard English girth. ADJUSTABLE POSITION CLOSE CONTACT RIGGING 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. Rear cinch is used to stabilize back. 3/4 position offers most stability in a single rigging stabilizing both the front and back. 7/8 position is most commonly used, providing enough stability to the front of the saddle without interfering with movement. 3

frequently asked questions Buying a saddle is a big decision and investment. Tucker frequently receives questions regarding the different aspects of this decision making. We hope these answers will help you with your saddle purchase. Q. How do I determine my seat size? A. Tucker saddles tend to run a little small from other brands because of all the great padding built into the seat. Different body types will take different seat sizes, regardless of the rider s weight. Generally, a rider for the 15.5 seat size will be small and/or slim, wearing a size 10 or less in a ladies jean. Riders 5 5 or taller and 150 pounds or heavier will be in a seat size. Riders 6 or over 200 pounds will usually be better in a 17.5 seat size. Larger riders 6 5 or over 250 pounds should consider the 18.5 seat size. Though some riders may be slim enough to ride in a certain seat size, the rider may need a larger size to accommodate the length of their thigh leg bone. Your knee bend should not go out over the front of the saddle. When trying a Tucker saddle in a shop, sit in the saddle. Your crotch area should just cover the flame pattern stitching in the front of the seat, or there should be 3-4 finger s width between the front of the crotch and the back of the swell. You do not want to be sitting on the rise in the seat and up behind the swell, as you might in a flatter saddle seat. Tucker designs the seat to have the Gel-Cush Shock Absorbing seat in the optimum rider position. See page 5 or visit our Web site at www.tuckersaddles.com for a new seat sizing chart. Q. Which Tucker saddle type is the best? A. Of course, all the Tucker saddles are great! We design the saddle models to have the different features riders are looking for. You should consider your riding experience, the land terrain where you ride, and the conformation of your horse when choosing a saddle design. Some riders like a saddle with a horn and a high cantle for security and back support. Others prefer a saddle with more seat freedom and leg swing. For some riders, an old-time western looking saddle fills their desire. Cantle and swells can help keep you in the saddle over hilly and rough trails, but horns can sometimes be in the way when going under tree branches. Some horses are too short backed for a full skirted saddle so many Tuckers, with and without horns, are available in round skirts. Tucker saddles have been designed with the gaited horse in mind allowing for the freedom of movement they require. Though other breeds appreciate this freedom, it is a requirement for a gaited horse. Q. Which girth rigging is best? A. Most Tucker saddles come standard with a western style rigging. Western rigging is universal and is proven to be durable and secure when adjusted correctly. A rear cinch can be added to keep the rear of the saddle in place. A similar rigging is the Adjustable Position Close Contact rigging which allows three positions in one: Full, 3/4, and 7/8. Tucker also offers its unique Enduro-Balanced rigging for extra stability. This rigging uses the rear rigging dee to interact with the front, giving riders the ability to adjust the girth placement and tension to accommodate their horse s needs. It also allows for the saddle to be held down in the rear which is good for hilly terrain. The Enduro-Balanced rigging comes in two girth styles - western and English billet style to give riders a familiar choice. Q. Does Tucker Trail Saddles do repairs? A. We offer repairs on the Tucker brand only. You may work through your dealer on repairs. If there is not a Tucker dealer near you, you may call 1-800-882-5375 or visit www.tuckersaddles.com. You MUST receive a Return Authorization number before sending in your saddle. Q. How do I buy a Tucker saddle? A. Tucker saddles and tack are sold exclusively through our network of authorized Tucker dealers. These dealers have made the commitment to offer the most popular styles and to stock them in their stores for you to see. Many dealers also have active Web sites and catalogs with Tucker saddles. When purchasing a Tucker saddle, carefully clarify with your dealer their return policy. For a dealer near you, please visit www.tuckersaddles.com or call 1-800-882-5375. Now available is on-line shopping through Shopatron. Your order is placed with the nearest Authorized Tucker dealer who will handle your order. Look for the Shopatron logo at www.tuckersaddles.com. Successful Saddle Fit for your Horse Q. What is the secret of a well fitting saddle? A. A properly fitting tree. Q. What is required for this to be successful? A. A saddle tree with bars that have enough twist and bend to contact the horse along the middle section. Our trees are designed with years of combined experience and study. The trees are carved out of an extra large piece of wood, so the twist and bend are adequate to provide continual surface contact through the middle section of the horse. A tree must have enough flare to free the horse to move in the front and rear. With our saddle trees we accomplish both of these objectives. Tucker saddles are designed with a bar flare to accommodate the motion of a horse s shoulders. Many gaited horses need this accommodation and other breeds will appreciate this freedom of movement as well. The tree width must be wide enough to accommodate the conformation of the horse s withers and back. Most Tucker saddles, with the exception of the Trooper style saddles, come in two tree widths: a medium tree that fits most horses with a defined set of withers, and a wide tree that will fit broader and flatter withered horses. Select models are available in an extra wide tree which fits draft and draft crosses, and especially wide foundation type of horses in other breeds. And, now Tucker has a specific mule fit tree. Tucker Trail Saddles have designed its saddle tree to fit a broad range of breeds and types of horses. Sometimes fitting your horse properly is only a matter of choosing the correct tree width. With other horses, some other fit accommodations will be needed. For those we suggest you send us a set of patterns and photos. 4

saddle fitting your horse For the majority of horses, saddle fit is easily accomplished. However, there are a small percentage of horses that may be hard to fit due to asymmetry or conformation issues. For these horses, we recommend taking the following measurements for our evaluation. Send the four drawings and photos to your authorized Tucker dealer or to Tucker Trail Saddles, P.O. Box 797, Yoakum, Texas 77995 for evaluation. We will have one of our saddle technicians contact you as soon as possible. Be sure to include your name, address, and daytime phone number. Tucker Saddles. All Rights Reserved. Obtain a device called a flexible curve. This measuring tool can easily be found at an office or art supply store. It should be at least 18 long. You may also use a piece of copper wire, found at most hardware stores. (A coat hanger or other stiff wire is not suitable.) You will use it to take a shape of your horse s back in four places, and then trace that shape onto a sturdy paper or poster board. Use a separate piece of paper for each tracing. Your horse should have his head up in a natural position for the following steps: 1. Bend the flexible curve in half and place it over the horse s withers where the fork of the tree would sit. Conform the flexible curve on the withers and shoulders by pressing it to follow the shape of your horse, as shown in the A photo above. 2. Carefully take the flexible curve off your horse and lay it on the paper, taking care not to change the shape that you have obtained. Trace the underside edge of the curve, making a line that is your horse s shape, as shown in C. Mark the pattern to show the left and right side of your horse. 3. Repeat #1 and #2 steps above 7 back from the first measurement. 4. Repeat #1 and #2 steps above at 15 back behind where the first measurement was taken. 5. After taking the three shapes above, straighten out the curve and place it length ways on your horse s back, from the wither to the croup, as shown in B. Then follow step #2 above. 6. Include photos of your horse, with his head up in a natural position, and from both sides.

tucker s trail riders We have accumulated over 50,000 trail miles while filming for our TV show, and the Tucker Trail Saddles have been able to keep my wife, Pat, and myself comfortable for hours in the saddle. They fit the variety of horses we ride at various shooting locations, from gaited horses to trotting breeds. Tucker Trail Saddles are of the highest quality and can withstand the demands of the trail riding we do, from the Canadian Yukon to Mexico, from Florida to California. Best of all, Tucker backs up their craftsmanship with superior design and technology for Ultimate Trail Comfort of both horse and rider. - Tom Seay, host and trailmaster for Best Of America By Horseback seen on RFD-TV, rides a Tucker Trail Saddle Bernice Ende, Long Rider, completed a 5,000 mile ride in Fall 2007 while riding a Tucker saddle. I am very proud of the fact that I use a Tucker saddle and countless numbers of horse people have commented on the saddle, its handsome look, and its durability. The saddle now fits both Honor and myself like a well worn pair of gloves. We are not out on a weekend ride, and every bit of caution, every item, every step I take must be taken with care and thought and consideration of that horse of mine. The only thing between me and my horse was a good saddle. - Bernice Ende, Long Rider, with her Thoroughbred mare, Honor, and her dog, Claire When I received my GEN II, the first thing that struck me was that fact that this was one beautiful saddle. Anything this good looking has to be a good ride, and I was not disappointed. It fits the horse just the way it should and does not interfere with his gait. The workmanship that went into this saddle is just a continuation of Tucker s history. My older Tucker is now 7 years old and fits like the old shoe everyone speaks of. This new GEN II seems to be starting out where the old one left off. Looking forward to spending a lot of miles in my new old shoe. - Garth Rumsmoke The Coast to Coast Rambler - Author I started riding in a Tucker saddle about four years ago, riding in the saddle from five to 20 hours a week on many different breeds of horses. Not only was it the most comfortable saddle I had ever ridden, but also its unique tree design kept my horses and my clients horses comfortable, too. It has proven to be very durable in my training program, from starting colts to building performance horses. On the trail, my Tucker saddle s comfort can t be beat and its practical engineering helps me to contain all of my trail riding needs and supplies. I am now riding in the Gen II High Plains series and I am enjoying all the new features. - Cindy Branham, John Lyons Certified Trainer, Topeka, KS www.rockin-rc.com 6 Tucker Trail Saddles are used by the stars of Best of America By Horseback as seen on RFD-TV Tucker Trail Saddles is the proud sponsor of the Trail division at the All American Quarter Horse Congress

The Next Generation of U L T I M A T E T R A I L C O M F O R T For 30 years, Tucker Trail Saddles has been dedicated to the design and manufacturing of trail saddles that provide Ultimate Trail Comfort for both the rider and horse. We have extensively researched saddle fit, especially as it applies to the gaited breeds. From the beginning, we have built our saddles to accommodate both standard and gaited horses. Now Tucker introduces the Next Generation of Ultimate Trail Comfort with the GEN II saddle line. In addition to new features that enhance rider comfort, the GII Tree and GEN II Skirt design raise saddle fit and equine comfort to a new level. The GII tree frees your horse to promote, encourage, and enhance its natural gait. Ideal for the gaited horse and a feature ALL horses will appreciate. A. B. GEN II Seat System Features the fusion of patented shock absorbing Gel-Cush technology with MicroCell ventilating top grain leather and conforming V-Foam padding to provide ultimate trail comfort Wool Skirt Lining All Tucker GEN II saddles use 100% Virgin Wool that has gone through a chemical carbonization process to eliminate impurities B. A. C. D. Adjustable Position Close Contact Rigging The adjustable position close contact rigging is an in-skirt rigging that allows you to position the saddle most suitable to horse and rider, while eliminating bulk under the rider s leg and providing close contact with the horse (see page 3 for rigging diagrams) GEN II Skirt Design Equal comfort for rider and horse; the same patented Gel-Cush padding riders have come to know and love from Tucker saddles is now available in a gel bar pad system for the comfort of the horse The Gel-Cush bar pad is inserted between the bar and saddle skirt to absorb shock and increase comfort and fit for the horse C.

The flexible wood bars allow the saddle to contour to the curve of your horse s back, while still supporting and distributing the rider s weight. The PolyForm material further frees the horse to perform its natural gaits. The materials provide strength and durability while keeping the saddle a manageable, lighter weight. The Fit-Fusion GII tree is finish coated in DURAhide covering. More consistent than traditional rawhide and fiberglass covered trees, it adds strength while keeping out moisture and the elements, adding to the life of your saddle. 7
