Wade Horns.jpg

We are no longer building saddle trees, but we have two videos about how Western saddles fit horses available on our westernsaddlefit.com website.

Horns on Wade Trees

We made this page just to show you what the different specs of horns look like on Wade trees.  For more information on horns in general please see our Basics on Horns page.  For comparisons of horns between Wades and swell forks and to compare stock thicknesses please see our Wood Post Horns page.

Our three most common pitches for Wade horns are 24, 27 and 30 degrees.  The first four tables compare horns at the different pitches at four horn heights - 2 3/4", 3", 3 1/4" and 3 1/2".  The difference in the pitch can appear small in the pictures, but it does make a difference in real life.  There are two more charts at the end, one with horns at lower pitches and one with horns at steeper pitches than our three most common ones.   

Please note:  These pictures are taken with the tree on a flat table.  The horn pitch will be flatter when the trees are on a horse.
