Opinions that Matter

Ken-Wold-Western-Horseman

“The New Jim Taylor Ken Wold Cowhorse Saddle has the rigging and tree to fit the modern day Horse. Jim’s new seat and swell make the rider feel that you can be a part of the horse and really feel secure when performing a fence run. Your seat, feet and body are in the proper position when performing any part of a working cow horse run. Whether it be cutting, reining, or fence work. And lastly, a person can ride it all day long because of it’s extreme comfort. I am very excited about this saddle and I’m proud to recommend it to any level rider!”

“I’ve been riding Jim Taylor saddles for 15 years and the quality is unsurpassed. It’s the most comfortable saddle I’ve ever ridden. Every time I get a new saddle it feels and rides the same as the previous one.”
