Tami Semas Barrel Saddles

The Right Tool for the Right Results

It's a simple statement, but ask any horseman and you'll learn that finding the right tools to enhance your horsemanship often requires a process of trial and error. Tami Semas, Equi-Stat's highest-earning futurity rider of 2015, has made it her mission to help barrel racers shortcut that process by providing them with the right tools for the barrel racing trade.

Your saddle is one of your most important tools for success in the barrel pen. Drawing on 25 years of experience running all types of horses at every level in barrel racing, Tami has designed a saddle that will help you shave time off the clock by keeping you secure in the saddle. The Tami S Barrel Saddle enables the rider to stabilize their weight in their feet, which lets the rider stay balanced and out of the horse's way throughout the entire run.

Designed to Keep You in the Right Position

The Tami S Barrel Saddle enables the rider to stabilize their weight in their feet, which lets the rider stay balanced and out of the horse's way throughout the entire run. It's very easy for the rider to slide up to the swells and sit deep. The cantle is sloped so it will never hit the rider, but allows the rider to use it to stay centered.

"I never want to fight my saddle to be in the correct position on my horse."

- Tami Semas

What does that mean for you and your horse?

Balance.

Comfort.

Security.

How Will It Fit Your Horse?

The Tami S Barrel Saddle is built on low bar angles to sit down on the horse's back and make contact from the front of the bar to the back. The bar has some flare and a little rock, designed to open up the horse's shoulder and allow the muscle to roll up underneath the bar. The bar pattern also allows the horse's back and loin to move freely, making contact without causing pressure points.

Two fits are available: regular and wide.

Regular Tree

Fits horses that have a wither with some separation from the shoulder muscle and scapula. The low bar angle means it also fits horses that are wide over their back and loin.

Wide Tree

Fits horses that are wide through the wither and shoulder, with little separation between the wither and shoulder.
Finding Your Seat Size

Tami Semas Barrel Saddles are made for the low ground seat, which gives more room as a result. Your seat size is completely up to you but we hope this gives you a guide for selecting the perfect size.

How to Break In Your Tami S Barrel Saddle

Ride it and use it. The materials we use on our saddles are high quality. You may need to cinch up a few times during the first few rides.

Here are a few things to try:

  • Work the fenders back and forth with your hands if they feel stiff
  • We use olive oil to oil and soften the leather
  • Rough out leather can be oiled with olive oil too
