Anyone care to share their experience? The new barrel racing saddles are catching my eye with a very reasonable price tag. 

I don't personally have one but know a few people that do. They love them! Say they will buy another. 

That is awesome to hear! Their new rough out barrel saddles resemble those with a 2-3K price tag for half that amount. I am all for trying one :).

They are so comfortable. I loved it. I normally ride a 13.5, and the one I tried was a 14,.it was too small.  It had the pencil roll.

That is the seat I am wanting. I usually ride a 14", could probably do a 13.5" in most saddles but sounds like I def need to stick to the 14 in this one. Thank you for that bit of info. 

Bought my daughter one this spring as she loves my Mary Walker BUT, I'm not spending that much for a growing kid.  The ride is similar to the walker saddle BUT the horn/swell is a lot higher than the walker.  My daughter loves it and it fits horses well!
