I am selling my custom
made saddle made for me by Joe Smith of Capitan, NM, anybody who knew him would
know what a well-built stout saddle this is. It has a 15' seat, 7.5' gullet best
as I can measure, and it is built on a Modified Association tree. It seems to
fit just about any type horse - wide mutton withered to narrow high withered
horses, I've had them all. This is a high quality saddle, in excellent shape,
well cared for by yours truly. It is stout enough to rope big cattle on, though
I have only drug calves to the fire on it. It's mostly been used for just trail
riding. Contact me by phone 474-403-6904 or e-mail me at sid...@plateautel.net for more
pictures or info. Pictures can be seen on Craigslist here: http://amarillo.craigslist.org/grd/2903630653.htmlSee picture
