I had one of those as a kid and it was good for riding a bucking horse as long as you stayed tight but if you got loose those knobby swells just added to the beating you got!😂

100% correct. Everything in life has positives and negatives. Thanks for leaving a wonderful comment and for watching this channel. Good stuff!

I love the looks of this saddle, SO MUCH.. That deep seat and rounded short skirt is awesome. I ride trails.. lots of long long trails with a Gaited Horse.. I know this is a working saddle, but it sure looks trail worthy! sure!🐎

I love a deep seat and a rounded short skirt too. :)

@@ellistonequinesolutions3795Thats all I use are deep seated, round skirted saddles. But I despise a bear trap because it pokes me in the thigh lol. I much prefer bucking rolls.

This was an excellent video. So much information and history. I really enjoyed it. What size seat is your saddle? Thanks 😊

[@ellistonequinesolutions3795]

Its a common Misconception, that the Californios or Buckaroos, always rode a Slick fork. There are plenty of photos of them riding Swell forks and as a kid, i saw a lot of my relatives riding swell forks. One thing you rarely saw was a trail cinch though. At one time, my Great Grandfather, even rode a Hamley Beartrap.

Hmmm my old Newberry has more swells than that. Still not a bear trap saddle.
