About Ranch Cutters We Carry

Built to Perform

A ranch Cutter saddle is designed as a versatile working saddle that blends the functionality of a ranch saddle with the agility of a cutting saddle. It’s built for riders who need to both work cattle and perform precise movements—like sorting, roping, or cutting—from the same saddle. We carry models from Scott Thomas, HR Saddlery, Circle Y, and Billy Cook, just to name a few built with reinforced trees and horns built for ranch work.

About Ranch Cutters We Carry

All Day Comfort

Ranch cutters feature a slightly deeper seat than a cutting saddle but not as heavy as a full ranch saddle. This gives the rider close contact and balance for quick, controlled movements while still offering security for long rides. At Saddle Up we stock a variety of seat sizes in both padded and hard seats.
