Western saddle fit

[Widget]

I have a western saddle I bought about 2 years ago on a whim because it looked pretty!:rolleyes:
I have never used it and it sits in my spare room gathering dust. My mare is going off for backing soon and once she is back I would like to use western tack on her. None of the local saddlers know about western tack as far as I know and the only one who claims to know a bit says they come in pony or full size and thats it!
Now im sure there is more to it than that but who do I ask? I live near Bristol. If my saddle doesnt fit thats fine and I will sell it and get one that does.
Ive heard about quarter horse and semi quarter horse bars???? Dunno what mine is tho!
