I originally ordered the 32x32 3/4' wool pad from their website. She took the time to email me and ask if it was for a barrel saddle, because she thought it might be too big. She mentioned that previously other barrel racers have had to exchange it for the 30x30.
I emailed her back and said it was for a Crown C... she took the time to check a Martin trophy barrel saddle they had and tell me I'd probably be happier with the 30x30 but to let her know for sure before she was to ship it out today.
I must say, I am really impressed with their level of customer service. She took extra time to check with me and make sure I was getting what I really needed. So huge shout out of thanks to her as well!!!  |

   Location: God's country...aka TEXAS | I use a 32x32 with my crown c. It has a 10 inch gullet though so it is wider and the skirt goes down further. A 30x30 would have saddle hanging over it. |

   Location: Oklahoma | Awesome service!! I know RockyRoad (a dealer) is always amazing to work with! I don't have the 32X32, but the 30X30 is obnoxiously long on my extremely short backed 14.3 gelding, but I love the fit of the 30X28 for him. My other gelding can use both the 30x28 & 30X30. Can't comment about the 32X32! |

I have worked with RR as well. Deanna is great and very helpful!
I'm hoping the 30x30 will work out well. I think that may be what I have in the 1/2 inch and so I should be good, but I just couldn't remember what I ordered previously. |

Thank you! I found w/the smaller gullet Crown C, the 30x30 worked ok but when I got the 9 1/2", the 30" wide was not enough. So I got 34" wide to be sure I had plenty of pad under the rigging. |
