Bronze, Ed. 25 (Sold Out)

With beautiful design and artful lines Greg captures the familiarity and comfort a bronc rider has with his rig.  Any seasoned bronc rider knows the feel of his bronc saddle.  As Greg describes, "You melt into the saddle, you sit into it instead of on top of it, it's as comfortable as grandpa's lazy boy."
     Just like a captain knows his ship from bow to stern a bronc rider knows his saddle.  He thinks about his binds more than any other piece of equipment.  The front binds provide the break over point for the stirrup when making the back stroke, and help with the snap back to the front.  The quarter binds are the fine adjustment to the stirrup length.  If they are too short you'll pop out of the saddle, if they are too long you'll chase the end of your stirrup and your ride will be sloppy.
     While Greg was still riding broncs he spent of his down time in his saddle, watching TV, reading, it didn't matter.  His wife couldn't keep it out of the house.  In fact, it always was given a prominent position.  Hours were spent checking binds, going over it top to bottom, front to back, all the while itching for the next ride.
     "Ship Without A Sea" gives you a glimpse behind the chutes and into the mind of a bronc rider as he gets ready with his rig to ride that next unpredictable horse.
