LAST WEEK’S PICK:
Last week’s pick – a 15″ Vintage Tex Tan Hereford Pleasure Saddle – generated a lot of action with 37 total bids. These vintage pleasure/trail saddles are really popular, and for good reason. This saddle ended up selling for $312.77, a fair price.
THIS WEEK’S PICK:
This week we’ve found a really nice barrel racing saddle from Cactus Saddlery. This saddle is from their signature series – a 14.5″ Charmayne James Barrel Saddle. Charymayne James is a world champion barrel racer.
The saddle is in like-new condition with obviously very few rides on it. It’s a really attractive saddle - medium oil with acorn, leaf, and barbwire tooling, rough out jockeys and fenders for grip, and a light pink suede seat to add a bit of pizazz for the competition arena.The seller says the gullet width is 7 inches.
Cactus Saddlery makes a nice saddle and this one is in great condition. This would be a very nice saddle for a youth or small adult for competitive events or a bit of light trail riding.
As of this writing, there are only 2 bids and a high bid of $102.50.
