Saddle Rigging

[Billy H]

Morning,

A few months ago I built my little girl a saddle and used a Ring rig set at 3/4 position, seems to be working fine.

Recently I started a Wade saddle for myself and have been thinking of doing a Ring Rig for it also.

I don't see many folks building them or riding them these days.

I would appreciate some thoughts as to what you Makers and Cowboys think of Ring Rigs. Thanks Billy

I like ring rigged saddles also. They look good and work well. I build a lot more flat plates but occasionally get an order for a ring rig.

Steve and Troy,

Thanks for your replies! I figure two of the best Makers in the country like them and still build them is good enough for me!!

If you don't mind me asking, what position do you like to put the ring at and what size of ring do you guys like best?

Thanks again, Billy
