Hello all!

Here is my second saddle I finished just in time for the leather trade show in Prescott. I was beyond thankful to get 2nd place! I learned so much from judges Gordon Andrus, Bob Klenda, and Al Gould. What a great experience! Can't wait to start on number 3 and make it even better! 

Saddle details: 

15-1/2" Hogg roper tree with leg-cuts.

Thoroughbred leather 

All hardware was from my good friend Gordy Alderson.

That's a nice piece of work. The lines are real good and the decorative elements are excellent. I like the way you kept it tied together with that rope border motiff. 

Regards,

Arturo

You are killin' it Ryan, as always! Watching you go big and excel is quite fun. I wish I had your talent, dude. The first place saddle must've been utterly amazing.

Very many congratulations from me as well.

If yours is 2nd place then the winner must be a real stunner and the competition must have been fierce

To everyone on here you'll always be the winner, Ryan
