Whoa. Whoa Whoa!!! Its not my picture, its Big Muddy's, I just sent it in for him, I guess I didn't explain it clear enough in the PM

Congrat Big Muddy!!
 
Yippee :D

I gotta thank the little people that made this happen. First Tam cause I sent her to the house for the camera and Yanuck for getting it sent to Lilly for me as I was having issues with photo bucket that evening. :D

The kids and I were sorting pairs and just as we were done i remembered the contest.
The front saddle is a Fallis Balanced ride I bought Tam for a wedding present 30 years ago, the second is a Ortho-flex i bought for myself but my daughter now uses. The third is a Shimon I bought in 2001 on my way home for hauling a horse to Kansas, My son is riding it that's why I am riding Tam's saddle until his new on gets here. :-)

Congrats, BMR!!!

That's quite an array of saddles ya got there.
So which one do you like the best and what's the new one
your son has coming?

Mantracker brought his own tack. He just rode our horse.

I have rode all three saddles. I'm using Tam's right now as my son out grew his and I don't like riding it so went to the Balanced ride. I like it but it could be a shade larger Still it's a great saddle. The Ortho-flex was mine .It was great on horses backs. Never sored up anything. My daughter had bought a new saddle but it was hurting her mare so I gave it to her. The Shimon has been good. Fit me and the horses I ride and I am looking forward to getting it back. :-)
The kids both have new saddles coming. A friend took a course from Dale Moore at Belgrade two winters ago. She spent last winter back with him building saddle as he had no students. She built Britt's saddle we just haven't got it yet and Lanes saddle is being built by Dale's grandson .
Dale builds a Forward hung stirrup but i couldn't talk the kids into that option. I like the Forward/Balanced ride.
