Ridecamp: RE: [RC] Endurance Saddles... E. Texas Endurance

I heartily recommend the Desoto. It's very balanced and has western seat and
rigging. Marilyn is great at making a quality product. www.desotosaddle.com
. I think her price for girth and saddle with wool felt pad is $1250.

Very satisfied customers,
Susan & Fly Bye
