I have to give you some advice on this saddle...since I recently traded a Vinton off like it, the front rigging dee may cause problems. Mine was like the one on this saddle, and since it's part on the skirt/part off, it caused a bad pressure point. Also, I had trouble with a big skirt...dug in on short-backed horses/colts I rode. You may be fine, but I'd keep this in mind FWIW . Happy saddle shopping !

You planning on goin' cuttin' on barrel racing?

It may just be the picture Haymaker but the leather looks pretty stiff. I find softer/oil tanned leather to be longer lived than most of the oak tanning methods.
That's my two bits for what it's worth to you.
