Introducing… the Double J Barrel Saddles Sale. Double J saddlery makes high-end saddles for all types of Western disciplines.
Wait…there are different types of western saddles? Yes.
Just like there are different kinds of riding disciplines and sports, there are saddles to match them. In the western world, the most popular are the all around saddles.
These saddles live up to their name by being able to do everything from ranching, roping, to trail riding. There are subtle differences that set this type of saddle apart.
For example, on an all around saddle, the horn is typically taller to allow a rider to hold it with his or her hand. You’ll find some great all around saddles in the Double J Barrel Saddles Sale.
And up next is the barrel saddle. These are made with a rider’s seat in mind, particularly when the rider is going through the fast turns of barrel racing.
Barrel saddles have a higher cantle and tend to be lighter weight so as to not take away speed from the horse.
You can trail ride in a barrel saddle, but if you tried roping or dragging anything using the horn, it would break. There are plenty of barrel saddles in the Double J Barrel Saddles Sale.
The last kind of western saddle we’ll go over today is a roping saddle.
These saddles are built to withstand pressure, with sturdy trees and a nice pocket seat good for holding a rider in the perfect position.
The cantle tends to be lower, and the skirt longer. When it comes to durability, the roping saddle is one of the best there is since it’s made to take a beating.
And if you’re looking for one, check out the Double J Barrel Saddles Sale.

These are all beautiful saddles. I am wondering though, if I were to pick out a saddle, does my weight or height or even experience matter? How do I determine what type of saddle is best for me so I have a great ride?
Hi Leahrae. Thanks for your questions. Your riding experience doesn’t matter. But your size matters when picking a saddle. It’s like buying shoes. The bigger you are, the bigger pair you need. The good news is that you don’t have to guess what size saddle to buy. The Horse Saddle Shop, while an online store, has a live chat feature which is 24/7 and a toll free number. They’re more than happy to walk you through the process of buying a saddle. You’re also allowed a 2-week money back guarantee. So you have absolutely nothing to lose!
