Fit the horses I used it on. BUT.....it hurt me so badly. The area where the seat transitions into the jockeys was rock hard and hurt my pelvic bones like crazy. At first I thought it was the length of my stirrups. Long or short, still I experienced pain. Then, I thought it was a problem with the saddle. Had it checked out. Nothing out of place. No other saddles have ever hurt me like that saddle did. I sold the thing and have never looked back. Hated it. I tried to love it becaue I liked the look of it. I just couldn't take it.

Extreme Veteran Posts: 477 Location: Lost in the swamps	^^^^^ like the last poster said! I used to ride in an old josey, it was like riding a cinder block. The seat was so hard! Rode in an old Camarillo at the trainers sooo comfy!!! I would not pass on an older Camarillo. Althought i do ride in a newer josey but I would not buy an older one. With that said If I had to choose between older model saddles: Camarillo all the way! Edited by imturnin3 2015-08-19 10:46 AM
