Yes. That is best. But you can usually cut about 40 to 48 strings the length of the side and they will be real good depending on the quality of the side
Hello! We have looked at making a video of changing saddle strings, but there are too many problems you might encounter for us to cover in a video. Thank you!
Hello! If it’s a good saddle you can reline it and put in new Dutchmen. The reason you have to reline it is because the old one won’t sew a back on correctly. Let us know if you have any more questions!

Mattie Sargent thank you!
Can you do a video on changing out saddle strings on a quality Wade saddle?
Thanks
