For today, we'll be taking a look at cowboy chicks! Girls Out West is the site in question, and it looks like we'll be checking out some hot California and Arizona babes here. You can imagine my surprise when I checked out the site for the first time and saw no cowboy hats, no spurs, no reverse cowgirl sex. Instead, I find Australian babes which immediately reminds me of our top-rated site, Abby Winters. Come to find out, there's some small affiliation here, which is a good jump start.
Similar to Abby, our webmistress Annie runs this site which focuses on her photography of amateur models from down under. That's about the only categorization I can give, because a quick glance around the galleries shows no limit on what kind of girl she'll photograph. There's old and young, fat and skinny alike here. The site itself looks ok, but a little less polished than Abby's site. Most of the tables and text look fine (except that they're really wide for some reason), but the graphics could use a touch up to be brought into the 21st century. The site is pretty easy to get around though, which is more important to me than how it looks.
You can browse the photo galleries by model, or by some clever categories (breast size, pubic hair, peeing, meaty flaps, and piercings just to name a few). The general look and feel of the pictures seems to vary as much as the models do. Some have a distinctly amateur feel to them, while others look more polished. On some the quality is pretty good, on others, not so good. I can tell you that teach gallery offers up a zip file download, which is great. The pictures seem to always fall around 1000x670 or so, depending on the cropping. The pictures looked decent overall, and for some reason the outdoor ones reminded me of the photography on Matt's Models, if I could describe it at all.
The video section is a lot smaller than the photo section, as expected I guess. Thankfully they have a separate list to find the videos, rather than having to search through each model's page. The videos are in MPG format, but the way they have it setup (with a php file delivering the video), they don't stream - download only. They generally look good, although not great. They are pretty large, at 512x368, and look like high-end amateur stuff. The first video or two of a girl usually involves an interview of some sort, while later ones get into "wanking" as those crazy Aussies call it.
At $20 a month, it's not expensive, but it is a little more than Abby's site. I feel bad referring to Abby so much, but the sites are just so similar. For a few dollars more a month, you're getting less content here which is tough to swallow. On it's own, Girls Out West is decent, though a little new. I like the content they have, but it could be polished up just a little bit with some work. I don't think I'd mind staying around for a little while here to see some changes. Unfortunately, our number one site offers up more for the money, so it's definitely worth taking a look there as well if you're interested in Australian amateurs.

We're going back out west here, to see the Girls Out West. Thankfully they've been busy here, updating faithfully and growing their collection a ton. That was probably one of the biggest problems before - just the size and newness of the site. Much is still the same, with just as good of content as they had last time, and more of it to boot. I didn't fet the feeling that the content varied like I did last time, as most everything I checked out was pretty nice. I enjoyed my time here quite a bit, though I'm still looking for something to distinguish itself from that other Australian site out there :)
Score increased from 80.6 to 82.2.

Girls Out West looks like it has been touched up a bit. It looks a little better to me, though I can't quite remember what the design was before so who knows. They have an advanced search coming in the next little bit that should help navigation of course. The site has grown, as expected, and is sporting some decent numbers these days. I think they may be updating close to daily these days, which is pretty damn good. The quality also got a bump up to keep up with the times; while not out of this world, it's nice to see them keeping things current. All their upgrades should be complete by the next time we visit, so all I can say is that it should be better than ever and definitely worth a look if you like what you see in the tour.
Score increased from 82.2 to 85.5.
