Due to the custom options available - we prefer to take saddle orders over the phone! Please call 417.644.0091
The Sentry Lite is our custom-made Amish hand crafted western trail horse saddle. The Sentry Lite is an affordable, lightweight, high quality saddle. We use a modified J-bar tree in the Sentry Lite. Cordura fenders and skirting with a synthetic liner help reduce the weight of the saddle without sacrificing durability. The Crest Ridge modified J-bar tree has stood the test of time. First seen in the saddles dating back to 1880, it was originally designed specifically for mules and narrow-bodied animals. This time tested and true tree has proven its worth in the thousand of animals able to remain sound with heavy use. The Sentry Lite comes with a Cheyenne Roll and laced bell stirrups standard. We build your Sentry Lite saddle to order allowing you to choose from a wide array of saddle options so you get exactly what you desire in a saddle. For our long-time customers, we previously marketed the Sentry-Lite as the Sonata--only the name has changed.
IT IS BEST TO CALL US WHEN YOU ARE READY TO ORDER! We have a lot of options available for this saddle.Our Sentry Lite saddle design was inspired by working saddles from the ‘old west’ which we modified to take advantage of modern technology and our years of experience in leading organized trail rides. In our flare trees, the gaited horse’s shoulder is free to move and the rider is placed in the center balanced position that has been proven superior over centuries of riding. The Sentry Lite offers a variety of rigging options to prevent galling and promote saddle stability. Crest Ridge Saddlery places a premium on rider comfort too. Our saddles have Supra-Cor padded gel-like seats covered with glove leather standard. We use only Wicket and Craig #1 leather, except for billets. For enhanced durability we use only stainless steel hardware and real Blevin's buckles.
