I've been looking for a replacement saddle. I didn't want to spend this much but I had a long talk with a saddle expert today and he convinced me that I'm better off even if it hurts in the short run. So thoughts on the three listed?

I like number 2.
Good Luck with your new saddle

**Diamond_Y** · 08-03-2008, 08:25 PM

I've sat in one like #2 - it was so comfortable, it made my butt laugh!

Iwasbornonahorse · 08-03-2008, 08:27 PM

Thanks, like I said I really do not want to spend that sort of $ but after I talked to this guy I decided that I don't want to risk a cheaper saddle. I'd prefer to have a saddle that has a record behind it, you know? I might as well buy right once, and not have to buy another saddle later when the crappy one falls apart. So I'm scraping cash up to get a nice one

dimpleflirt · 08-03-2008, 08:28 PM

#2 looks good to me too.But

I'm still in sticker shock! that is twice what I paid for my two horses and trailer combined! It is worth it in the long run for your horses back though.I've been told that is the type of saddle I need for Tater but I just can't justify the cost right now.

If that horse in your avitar is who the saddle is for I'd go with with the arab saddle as the are specifically built for the arab. I have the flagstaff and it is very nice BUT on an arab it may be to wide and the sherriden is the same thing as the flagstaff just diffrent tooling.

Ok then I LOVE my flex flagstaff it to is a regular tree.!!!! I also have a Gen II tucker high plains and it is SOOOOO comfortable I love that saddle if you have the money but I wouldn't trade it for the world!

The serriden is basically the same saddle as the flagstaff just diffrent tooling and conchos. All are really nice though.

I like #2. I have a Circle Y and it was well worth the investment.

Mav2007 · 08-03-2008, 09:29 PM

I like number 3.

Wolfie · 08-04-2008, 12:20 AM

Number 2 is my favorite.

SunshineQH · 08-04-2008, 12:56 AM

# 3 For Sure!!!
I have had the same Circle Y Roper Saddle since I was 9, That's 15 years ago, and I'm keeping it for my kid.
I just bought another new Circle Y and I won't buy anything else.

Rusty's Girl · 08-04-2008, 01:05 AM

I like #2, but if #3 will fit her better because it has an arab tree, go with that one.

ahlihaff · 08-04-2008, 09:12 AM

I like #2, but #1 looks like it has a suede seat which I like. I'd go with whichever one fits my horse best.
