Re: [RC] Big Horn Saddles - rides2far@xxxxxxxx

I kind of hate to ask what seems the obvious, but what company makes Big 
Horn Saddles?  I did a search on the web, but didn?t find an actual Big Horn 
Saddle Company.  I saw one on e-bay that interests >>>me so I am looking for 
more information about the saddles in general.


Big Horn Saddlery is in Chattanooga, TN. 1222 E. 38th St. 37409
423 867-9901  That's the factory. I doubt you'll talk to anyone there who's 
ever seen one of their saddles on a horse's back. I've talked to them (in 
person) with no luck at all. They know all about saddles and nothing about 
horses. You'd do better to discuss them with one of the endurance vendors who 
sells them. 

One thing I wouldn't worry about is the idea that the saddle has full Quarter 
Horse bars or whatever. I argued with them that they should offer it on an 
Arabian tree to no avail. Finally got a guy who worked there to sneak some 
trees out to me. The tree that was in it wasn't bad, except there was no flair 
in the front...but the "Arab" tree was wide enough for a Percheron. The tree in 
it was narrow in the cantle for our western built Appaloosa and caused some 
soreness in the loin...was resting on the edges.
