| Well, of course there is Josey's. They should have a range of prices. The store a Ben Wheeler. They should also have a wide range of prices. The only drawback is that this time of year their selection may not be quite as good because it is so close to Christmas. |

Location: NE TX | Josey's in Karnack has good saddles, 4T in Ben Wheeler will have some, and Cowboy Collection in Terrell carries saddles now. If you want to drive to Teskey's they have some (not sure where in E TX you are), I'm sure I'm forgetting some |

| Forgot about TOPPS in Bossier City. They have a good selection too. I have bought three saddles from Topps and one from Joseys. I took my horse to Joseys and to Topps to get them fitted. |

Location: south central usa | appreciate the responses...the closest dedicated tack store is 2+ hrs away and the selection is slim so we were going to make a day out of going to a couple.
do any of the saddleries around Greenville sell out of their shops? |

Location: lone star state | Yes most ALL the shops in Greenville sell out of their shop but you have to order. They don't keep inventory for sale. |

Location: Downsouth | Look at Green Custom Saddles FB page. They are located in Greenville. He has several in stock and the quality looks awesome. I called and talked to the owner a few weeks ago. He was very helpful and also texted lots of pics.
Herbie, where are you?? :-) |

Location: NE Texas | Contact Green Custom Saddlery in Greenville through their Facebook page. He has several saddles in his shop that you could sit in. This is a saddle shop where they build, not a store, so they won't be displayed all pretty like a retail store. These saddles are the same quality as Jeff Smith, Tami Semas, and Vernon Purdy, South Texas Tack (and even currently builds or has built most of these I mentioned) but the price is very affordable, as he's trying to build his own name rather than private labeling. He uses Beaty trees and they fit a horse really nice. |

I live not too far from Four T and love that place. It is so dangerous to go there for 1 little thing because that is not what you will leave with. I haven't really saddle shopped there. Just everything else. We should have a BHW BB meeting there. |

I was there Tuesday to get a new cinch. I got a new over and under, two new sets of reins, a headstall, and a bit I've been looking for. Oh and also the cinch that u was there for to begin with! Yep, I know I know!
