The top reason why so many horse enthusiasts prefer Billy Cook is not only that every saddle buys them the comfort and quality they expect, but also because each saddle is a distinct work of art with its own unique features. This Barrel Racing Saddle could not be mistaken for another.
With its distinct two-toned look, half-breed Texas hand tooling, and silver-laced rope swell, this saddle bears remarkably creative craftsmanship. Don't buy another barrel racer that looks like all the rest. Buy Billy Cook.
**Note: Billy Cook now puts nylon rigging straps on all barrel saddles. They no longer include a cinch (front or back flank strap)**
