Members jwwright Posted February 16, 2012 Members Report Posted February 16, 2012 I don't recall seeing very many seat rigged saddles posted here over the years, so I though I'd post this one I recently finished. This rough out I built on a tree with what I call Bluestem Will James swell shape. The cantle is 3" , and the duckbill horn is 2 1/2" high with a 3 1/2" cap. Thank You, JW Quote www.jwwrightsaddlery.com
Moderator bruce johnson Posted February 16, 2012 Moderator Report Posted February 16, 2012 There is "punchy" and then there is "PUNCHY". Then there's a level just above that reserved for stuff like this. This saddle is PUNCHY!!!!

Frank Posted February 17, 2012 Report Posted February 17, 2012 I second Bruce on that! Quote Never argue with a stupid person. They'll just drag you down to their level and beat you with experience!!
Members jwwright Posted February 17, 2012 Author Members Report Posted February 17, 2012 Yes sir, we do punchy. I'll take that as a compliment....Thank You both! JW Quote www.jwwrightsaddlery.com
Members CWR Posted February 17, 2012 Members Report Posted February 17, 2012 That's a fine looking rig JW. It'd make Bob Marrs proud. Thanks for showing it. CW Quote 1 Thessalonians 4: 11,12
Members BondoBobCustomSaddles Posted February 17, 2012 Members Report Posted February 17, 2012 Jim your saddles always project a usin' attitude. This saddle is no exception. Nicely done! Bob Quote
Members Billy H Posted February 17, 2012 Members Report Posted February 17, 2012 Hey JW! Cool !!!!!!! First question: Was that rig challenging to build? Second question: Do you get to try your work out--or is this one headed for sagebrush and the prairie. As always--look forward to a post from the Mad Cow. Billy Quote
Members GrampaJoel Posted February 17, 2012 Members Report Posted February 17, 2012 As always JW you make a very nice saddle. There's not much to not like about a rough out saddle. You got some style boy! Ok, I'll be the first to ask,,, I could guess, and assume, and I could pretend I know, but I'd rather know for sure. What the heck does 'punchy' mean?? Joel Quote

Joel Joel, In my vernacular it means "cowboy cool". Kind of derivation of cowpuncher that has taken on a meaning if its own. Most of the time I hear it from the KS. OK, and west TX area. I had a guy email about some spur straps a few days ago, The email was "pull through leathers, barbwire and brown iron buckles, and stamp them kind of punchy" . I did a Bible cover last fall and asked what pattern she wanted on it. She said " no flowers, but punch it up some. It's for my husband".

Members B Milla Posted February 17, 2012 Members Report Posted February 17, 2012 Punchy is a state of mind that many attempt, and few fully achieve. JW, is that the Lewis Tree you ordered this fall? Quote
