Differences in saddle brands
#10
I found when tightening the breast strap too much it impacted their range of movement. Especially go uphill and over deadfall.

I too noticed the breast strap was hanging too low but I haven't figured out a way from keeping the breast strap from pulling the whole saddle forward onto the goats shoulders as they go over obstacles. This happens when I tighten the breast strap.

I tried tightening the rump strap to prevent the saddle from being pulled forward, but that too also restricted their range of movement.

So I decided to keep the breast strap on the looser side. This way my boys were more agile.

I really appreciate the help and am trying to fine tune my goats packing experience.
