Anybody tried both? Getting a new saddle this year and I'm going to try a TX5. Struggling with an extra $100+ for the Lonestar, but I'm willing to pay if it's worth it. I'm a leaner 99% of the time, so I thought the Rayder might save me some coin.
 
I’ve not hunted out of the Rayder but owned a model TX5 custom that was similar. After I got the lonestar it was a big leap in an already comfortable saddle. My opinion is the HPR system is worth the extra $
 
I do not have experience with either but am interested in hearing from those that have. Looked at each quite a bit several weeks ago. Bumping up TTT, with a bit of humor for those that might understand….

It’s worth it! Lonestar is most comfortable saddle I’ve had. I got the stretch panel. I probably sit more than lean but even my old 2 panel isn’t as comfortable! IMO!:). I would think for leaning it is even better!
