Location: Georgia | Normally before the NFR I see an article where all the girls list what Tack they use, what they feed, and some other interesting questions. I did not see that article this year. Did anyone else see it? |

Location: Illinois | I was JUST thinking about this. Always liked reading what truck they use, trailer etc I haven't seen anything this year like that yet
I believe barrel horse news did the article? I haven't gotten mine this month yet but curious if it was in the December issue? |

| I know Sarah rides Bling in a Corriente. Just goes to prove you don't need a $2000+ saddle to run at a high level. |

I thought the same thing when I first saw that, very cool! But as the NFR went on, did seem like her Corientte was sliding around quite a bit. Not staying in place nearly as well as the Double J she used to run in. Would love to know the reasoning behind her change. |

I bet if that Corrientte keeps sliding around she will not be using it for long. Thats the last thing she needs on a horse like Bling. |

I think Sarah could ride bling bareback. I swear, I don't think there is another person on the planet that could get on that horse and
make a run. Not really the ideal turn, but dang they make it work don't they?

Location: Cocoa, Florida | I only saw one person in a treeless I think it was Carly? I'm sure sherry was in a Martin, I don't know about the double Js but I'm seeing a LOT of them on sale. I've had a couple corriente trophy saddles, they are decent and lasted a long while for a cheaper saddle. Wayne is making some really pretty saddles these days with the popular rough out. The standard tree was 7" and he told me he couldn't make a 6.5 for my current open horse so i didn't get one.

Yea I like the way his saddles are looking and the quality seemed decent. But I tried one on my horse and it was a bit snug, he told me they only made them in that size so I couldnt order one. |

| Glad to know I wasn't imagining things. I saw it and thought "uh oh" and then thought "can't be ... maybe its the way she rides ... she really has to get in there and ride every step of the way". Then as the week progressed, I held my breath not for fear of her hitting a barrel but for fear of it rollin too far. Even my non-horsey husband noticed it ... I hope she gets it figured out. |

Location: The South | Did anyone notice all of the rhinestones on Jana Bean's saddle? I can't remember what round it was, but the camera was zoomed in when she was coming in the gate and it looked like her whole skirt was covered in rhinestones. My heart skipped a beat lol. I wonder if it came that way or someone added them for her? I'd love to see it in person, I bet it's breathtaking  |

It slid soooo much though  I don't think she'll be riding in it after the NFR if I had to make a guess but she's sponsored by them so I think she felt she had to ride in it
I know Stevi Hillman rode in her Rockin M Leathers tack set :)
