| MY 17.5" XW County Conquest!!! |
Here we are, about a month after buying my new saddle, I finally got to see it in person for the first time. My friends and fitter did not lie - it is indeed, beautiful. The round cantle about which I was so concerned really is very subtle; you can't really tell that it is round from the side. And from the back, well, it's kind of growing on me. It has piping. I'm a sucker for piping. The color is perfect and lovely, and my much-loved Prestige stirrup leathers are a perfect match. The seat isn't quite as "squishy" as some of the other Countys I've ridden in, but it is still very comfortable. And most importantly, it fits my horses! I put a nameplate on it. That means it's definitely a keeper.
