How Much Can a Saddle Change a Horse’s Personality the First Ride?
Can changing a saddle immediately change a horse’s attitude, how they move and willingness to work?That’s the question being explored this week on New Leader LIVE.
When Lynda Alsip placed her new Bullseye Saddle on her mare for the first time, the response started in the barn. Her mare went from looking around and stepping sideways to:
• Licking
• Chewing
• Lowering her head
• Yawning
Just by setting the saddle on her back.
Once Lynda stepped in the stirrup, she reported a noticeable shift in her own position and comfort — particularly in hip mobility and reduced sit bone pressure — which eliminated resistance in the reins and allowed her mare to move more freely.
Season 03, Episode 01 – March 4, 2026
In her follow-up message after a second ride, Lynda shared:
"I’ve always had top name brand saddles, but this feels different. I’m not bracing from pain, which makes it easy to ride. Everything we’ve been learning feels like it works 100% now.”
See the difference for yourself. The March 4 broadcast will review Lynda’s mare before and after Bullseye, including visible changes in stride extension, responsiveness, and how her mare stops.
If equipment can influence rider posture and horse biomechanics this quickly, it raises a compelling question:
What role might your current saddle be playing in your horse’s performance?
Watch the full analysis on March 4 during New Leader LIVE.
