western saddles and tack

ah, the lovely and LSQ western saddle sets!!! i must say that i LOVE creating these guys! every time a make a new set i get better and more dietialed at it. since i am myself a barrel racer and endurance rider, those are he current sets that i make. i can make other saddles apon request, but these are the one i am best at. these sets are made in a slighty altered Susan Bensuma Young style (see my links page for her site). yes, that means that they are treeless. i don't order supplys from riorondo very ofen, so i started using ribbon (which is in perfect scale with breyers and looks like miniture nylon!). i have gotten exelent at creating hand burnt holes for tounge buckles. it is truely a wonderful material to work with and is very easy to get. plese e-mail me if you would like to order one of these wonderfully ditailed sets. the price really depends on the set, but the basic set would start at $40.00.....

~~BARREL RACING SETS~~ a basic set includes a saddle, bridal, saddle pad, cinch and breastcolor. i can add bell boots, polo wraps or SMB II type boots, a tie down and an over under whip.
