Question

What is the difference between quarter horse bar and full horse bars in terms of saddle?

Answer 1

Quarter Horse Bar or Semi Quarter Horse Bar (usually 6 1/2" for semi - 6 3/4" for regular gullet) is by far the most common tree. It is for the medium back, decent wither and often mixed blood descent (1/2 Arab, Appendix or other mixes). Most saddles are semi qh/qh bars.

The Full Quarter Horse Bar (usually 7" gullet) is often used for the "Bulldog" Quarter Horse or horses with broad backs and sometimes mutton-withered Quarter Horses.
