a reining saddle is a western saddle that is more leaned back and relaxed looking than say a barrel racing saddle. a reining saddle allows you to lean back, instead of being tight and upward.
A jumping saddle is often used for riders in horse equestrian competitions. It is designed to seat the rider more forward, closer to the horse. It is often used in vaulting and reining.

Priscilla Reining died in 2007.
Priscilla Reining was born in 1923.
Texas and California are known for reining horse competitions.
when you ride in reining, you do a series of spins and circles. when you ride in reining and do a circle, its a figure 8 type pattern, although you do about 3 circles on the right and 3 on the left, its still a figure 8 in the end. you can also compare reining to figure skating, its very similar. i know this because i compete in reining.
Reining is the slowing down of a horse by sharply pulling its reins back and to the right or left.
It all depends on what you're going to do with it. First, English or Western? I'm a Western rider, so I can't really help you with English riding. Since it's a Quarter horse, I'll assume it's Western. If you're going to do reining, get a reining saddle. Pleasure, get a pleasure saddle. Trails, get a trail saddle, western speed events, get a barrel saddle. I personally LOVE barrel saddles. I do all sorts of trails and moving cattle and speed events (barrels, poles, straightaway, speed, flags, etc.) And won't ever use anything else. It's easier to sit deep in the saddle. Again, it depends on what works best for you and your horse. As for size, that depends completely. Get a size that fits you, and make sure it fits your horse right. There isn't anything that is special for 'quarter horses.'
Wester riding is less discplined and more free. You can more likely or not tack up your horse and just ride on western without so much training. English is more formal and disciplined. If you want to look fancy riding a horse you usually ride English. Wester is used more in rodeos. western takes just as much disapline and pose as English i know i ride and the saddles and other tack are way different and so are the events
They say Western Pleasure is Western Dressage.As for reining nothing.
