western saddle ?

I have been working my young horse on mounting and dismounting him. The saddle keep slipping with my weight. Yes, I tighten it but, it still slips. I checked and it is down on his shoulders and clear over his withers.
How do I keep it from sliding? He is a young horse I don't want to snug it up way tight. What's the trick?

Manteca,
