So I have been having some problems with my saddle and I'm looking into a Bob Marshall or a Tammy Fischer. Give me pro's and cons to each. I rode in a Origianl Bob Marshall last night and it was different, but I liked it. I have not made a run in one yet and it's just feels kinda not sturdy and I'm also used to riding in a rear cinch, which from what I've seen people really don't ride in one.

If you can try both so you can decide on which you like better.
I had a Tammy Fischer and sold it. Kept me waaaaaay tooo locked in. IMO and experience the Bob's are much better quaility, hold their value and are much easier to sell.

Agreed, I had a Tammy and I felt locked in too. With a Bob you can kind of move around better and you don't feel trapped in.

So question, I have a problem with keeping my feet forward. Do the TF's do that? I do have a friend with a TF and I will see if she will let me try it out.

Never had a TF since I am happy with my BM.. On a Bob Marshall you can get the forward hung stirrups you have to ask for the Allison Ray rigging. I have this set up on all my BM's since I like my feet more forward.
