 I'm looking at ordering one but I would like to read more about them. Does she explain anything about them anywhere?

I've been emailing them. I sent them pictures of my horses back she told me I would prob need a regular tree. I'll call today when they email me back she said she was going to look through the pictures and then tell me what kind of tree I would need.

I think I remember hearing that these are Jeff Smith saddles, only Tami is designing the "look" of them.

How do these ride compared to a Coats? Do they have a deeper seat?

I've been intrigued by them since they came out, but haven't gotten to try one yet.  I know that Julie and Amy both really like them.  The mechanics as they have been explained to me make sense and I would definitely look at one if I was in the market...I'm pretty hung up on my Allen Ranch right now though, lol

Yes, when I was looking to buy it was between a Coats and a Tami and luckily I got to ride in both. I chose the Tami.

Tami let me sit in hers a couple of weeks ago and I really liked the way it felt. I plan to order one just as soon as I can.

I am hoping to try & maybe purchase a Tami Semas saddle within the next year. Really impressed with how they look; seem to be pretty well made.

 Tami designed the entire saddle, Jeff Smith just builds them for her. She spent days and hours in their shop tuning things.

I can't say enough good things about mine, except for the fact it ruined one of my new western shirts....but got me out of a bad habit of leaning forward!

Can you go into more detail? In all seriousness lol I have a habit of leaning forward but not so much on my new horse.

Visual's are probably better, let me post some pics in my Tami, and in my Cactus.  

In my Cactus my legs could get behind me rather quickly and easily and I would 'Ski Jump' I call it lol. I couldn't use my stirrups for whatever reason.

Thank you for posting those! I haven't seen any other size other than a 13.5. Do they run big or am I just 2x the size of most barrel racers haha!

 Mine is actually a 14, I could probably use a 13.5 but I felt claustrophobic in one that I tried, probably because the horn and cantel are so high??
