2387 Chocolate !
Omg. I was told 12 to 13 weeks to have this beautiful saddle made and it was here in 8. Thank you so much. I originally owned a Rocking R 1300 model and sold it with my horse so I bought a new one! I knew the tree fit my horses so it just made sense to get another one.
Pros:None
Cons:None

Great Saddle! Great Price! Great Customer Service!
I was looking for another training saddle and was considering buying a used one. I accidentally came across South Bend Saddle Company while searching for a used saddle on Facebook. I came across a Rocking R saddle but it was already sold so I decided to look up the cost of a new one and found out South Bend Saddle Company bought them out. What luck! I got on their website and decided to open a chat and asked what they had in stock. The one I wanted was not in stock but the person I chatted with said he would find out what the wait time would be. The VP of the company emailed me the very next day to let me know he could get the one I wanted in ten days!
I bought it! GREAT PRICE!
VP contacted me! GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!
Then when it arrived I rode in it! GREAT SADDLE!
The saddle feels broken in, no squeak and very comfortable! It also looks great! I purchased the two tone, honey colored training saddle, model number 2387.

Pros:Nice looking! Very comfortable! Great price and amazing customer service!
Cons:I didnt realize, until after I received the saddle, that the off billet and cinch strap were nylon. Leather is an upgrade. Its my own fault. Big bold letters, on the description of the saddle, that both are nylon. Lol! Still a phenomenal saddle for the price!

Training Saddle 2387
I bought this saddle about a couple months ago and I love it and my mare loves it. I have a Percheron and this saddle fits her perfectly. Is beautiful and well made. I got a compliment from a friend on how well made this saddle is.

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!
