Well I am constant rider with probably 150 miles a week and my current saddle is hurting. Can somebody recommend a good saddle for the riding im doing?

It would be hard to recommend unless you explain the problem. Mountain or Road Cycling? If it is a quality brand name saddle you have, try adjustments first. Most reputable bike shops will let you test ride one before buying. What one person prefers may not work for you.

how long have you been riding on that saddle? I am going to assume you are riding a road bike, and second what rgreatrix stated, check a local bike shop out. people are built different what works for me may not work for you.

X2 I would also suggest a local shop for looking, I found a very nice saddle for my mountain bike through the locals.

What is up with the brown brooks saddles??? Ive been hearing that they are just the best thing since sliced bread... I dont get it. They look like something from the 60's or something.

I agree about the design, not exactly my taste

Everybody's butt is different therefore saddle recommendations are very iffy. Anatomy of sit bones (isheal tuberosities), position on bike (which affects the width and where the bones sits on the saddle as well as the weight on the saddle vs. on the arms), and very importantly, how hard you generally pedal (which also affects position of the bones and weight on the bones vs. supported by the legs).

The best thing that can help you is to describe the saddle you have, what the problem is. But the only way to find the one that works best for you is to try a bunch for significant rides each. My method has been to use a shop that has a satisfaction guarantee so that I can ride the saddle for at least several rides and return it if it doesn't work. Performance Bike stores and online has that policy and Bontrager dealers also have that policy for Bontrager saddles. There are others.

try lots, get some advice on fitting to the bike properly, get good shorts!

SMP4Bike saddles should be on the list of the ones you try, I found them about a year and a half ago and just wish I'd found them sooner

I like my new Rido R2
Sensational new RIDO 'R2' comfort bicycle saddle

I bought two, one for me and one for my wife. She hated it so my biking friend bought it and he really likes it too.
