Barrel Saddles
Barrel saddles are smaller and lighter than other Western saddles as they are designed for speed. The tree is light and smaller than
usual and skirts are minimised to give a ligtweight saddle that will not slow the horse down. Barrel saddles often weigh less than thirty pounds. The seat is flat to give easier movement on turns and the cantle and pommel are high to hold the rider securely. The horn is narrow and tall to allow a firm grip and ease of mounting and dismounting.
