Western and Leather so I hope it Qualifies

Hi guys, I just finshed one of my most advanced projects and really wanted to show you all... Mods I hope it is Cowboy enough..if not just delete it, as I realize we are based around CAS shooting here.

Inlaid padded seat, rawhide cheyenne roll cantle binding and tooled with my new Barry King hourglass basket stamp

Thanks for looking and God Bless!

Absolutly beautiful. Would like to have it just for display purposes. Not being a horse rider, so what are the two "bumps" next to the saddle horn? Is this for customer or for your own use?

Shux, I think there is a whole segment of SASS shooters using their guns from horseback and what wanna-be cowboy doesn't dream of riding his horse off into the sunset after the shooting is done???  Shux, our own Will Ghormley even does it!!

Nice work. Lotta sweat went into that.

 Freedom, very,very beautiful work. As you now know it ain't easy building a saddle and you have pretty much aced it from what I can see.  Your stitching looks great, your basket weave is perfect, and I love the color.

That is a prime example of the saddle makers art.

       Saddles are always welcome here pard, you can't get more western than that, and your saddle is beautiful, I can see you have put a lot of work into this one, and your efforts were worth it, well done, and thanks for the look see.

Freedom beautiful saddle. It would look a lot better if it was in my western room.. KT 

[JD Alan]

Freedom, that is off the hook man! What a ton of work, but what a great job. Like KT, I'd love to have something like that sitting around to look at , even though I no longer have horses, nor a western room!

Thanks for sharing the great pix

[Freedom]

Thank you so much guys! I sure had a lot of fun building it. And a Lot of hours. I built it for my wife Lisa.

The little rolls are called "Bucking Rolls" and they are used on the Wade style, slick fork saddles for added...well to help you keep your seat.

A simple phone call and size info is all it will take to put one in your collection   Thanks everyone!!

Awesome job! It must take a lot of skill & patience to turn out a complicated item like Saddle and have it look so good. Many thanks for sharing it with us.
