Tack and Togs - Western Saddles for Sale
|
Western saddles are used for western riding and are the saddles used on working horses on cattle ranches throughout the United States, particularly in the west. They are the cowboy saddles most movie fans imagine a saddle to be. Rodeo fans, and those who have gone on trail rides at guest ranches usually use a western saddle. The saddle was designed to provide security and comfort to the rider who spends long hours on a horse, traveling over rugged terrain. The design of the Western saddle derives from the saddles of the Spanish vaqueros; the early horse trainers and cattle handlers of Mexico and the American Southwest. It was developed for the purpose of working cattle across vast areas, and came from a combination of the saddles used in the two main styles of horseback riding practiced in Spain. |
