I think its amazing that you didnt have any experience with horses etc. I am in the same boat and do alot of leathercraft but recently have been really wanting to make saddles for the challenge even though I dont have a horse. Thank you so much for this review! If only i could get out of work for 5 weeks to do this! Maybe in the next year or two!

[@OnPointLeatherworks]

It sounds like you and I were in the exact same boat about our reasons to attend! Also, it’s a huge challenge finding a job that will let you be gone for so long, let alone saving up the vacation to be gone and then actually spending that time away from your family and life. Feel free to message me if you have any further questions, I’m happy to talk!

@@OnPointLeatherworks I noticed you had a setter and I have a Brittany I use for upland hunting. Do you think they would let you bring a dog with you?

[@OnPointLeatherworks]

@@stephenfiedler4305 when I was there, no one had a dog. The owners have dogs though and they hung out during the day and through class. It’s possible they’d let you give it a try, but if the dogs don’t get along I’d want a backup plan. Maybe a local sitter? They have cattle dogs and those breeds can be particular, although they seemed like sweet dogs. I’d call them and ask, because really I’m just speculating

Great video, love that the dog made an appearance. Great, thorough review.

[@OnPointLeatherworks]

Thank you! I’m really glad you enjoyed it. Cooper will have to spend more time on camera

I think you left out a lot about the 2nd class. I just took both courses from March to May. The classes are not as long as what you got. I was disappointed with time allotted for our own. We spent far more time on the shop sale saddle.
The advanced course is the same exact thing again except you are left on your own. Dale was not helpful at all in the 2nd course. I ended up leaving it after a week.
When it comes to questions outside for the horse world, Dale spends a lot of time talking bad about professional saddles i/e Martin, circle Y. His saddle is all he knows. The 2nd round is not worth it at all.

I didn’t take the second class, only the first class. So my experience with the second class is limited to just watching a person go through the second class while I was in my first.
The guy going through the second class seemed to have help when he needed it, but that’s an observers opinion. Also, I took this class three years ago so it’s possible things have changed. I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy your time there. It’s a big ordeal to go, to then not enjoy it

You sold me at GI bill.

It’s a great opportunity
