Beautiful Saddle, great feel and position
We were looking for a used very wide Rocking R Saddle for many months, when we found out that South Bend is the re-branded name of Rocking R. Something about the seat rise, cantle position make this our favorite mid-priced saddle. This one came with a very wide 8 inch gullet which is hard to find in any of the lower priced saddles. Those of use with Paint horses understand how much of a treasure any 8 inch gullet western saddle is. Unable to find a used Rocking R, we finally bit the bullet and purchased this one. It's really beautiful and a step up from a regular trainer. My daughter will be proud to take this to schooling shows and even Rated shows, until she can get a "show" saddle. We aren't super thrilled to have roughout as far as worrying about cleaning and looks, but roughout *does* give more grip, so it's not a bad thing.
Pros:Great seat position! Beautiful tooling, soft supple leather, comes ride-readyu
Cons:nylon off billet and latigo, we didn't really want roughout but you can't have it all.

Excellent saddle
I was pretty heartbroken to find that my well loved saddle did not fit my new horse. During my trial of many saddles, a Rocking R fit best. I was too impatient to wait for a used saddle to appear, so I took a chance and ordered this South Bend. I was pretty smitten with my old saddle, and was skeptical I would find something as comfortable but this one stepped in and didn't miss a beat. It's beautiful I get a ton of compliments on it, it fits my horse well, and is super comfy. I spend a couple days doing the broomstick to turn the stirrups trick, and now it's perfect. I'm getting back into riding after a long break. I'm coming back more timid that I did as a kid. Thankfully I feel very secure in this saddle, and my trainer says that this saddle puts me in a much better position than the old one did. Highly recommend!
