| Who has one? What can you tell me about them? I have never seen one in person, only pictures.
I was fixing to order a custom Caldwell, but was so unimpressed by the customer service that I have decided to take my business somewhere else, unfortunately. Are H3's comparable? THey look like it in pictures, but how do they fit and ride? I really hope someone comes on here and tells me they are BETTER than Caldwells! However, I would appreciate real honest opinons. thanks. |

         Location: Somewhere between raising hell and Amazing Grace | I don't know that they are better then Caldwell, but they are on the same level for sure. I don't think you can go wrong with either. I had a horrible experience with Caldwell but I'm not allowed to share or other board buddies will crucify me |

    Location: NC | Just from hearing what happened to missroselee, I won't ever be doing business with Caldwell, even if I could afford one of their saddles.
H3 has donated towards benefits & charities that I know of, so I wouldn't hesitate to support them. |

   Location: Somewhere in N.C. | If you can find a used caldwell I would recommend them, but if you are looking to custom order one, go with anyone else but them. I have heard good things about h3's, but they didn't have the tree I was looking so I had to go elsewhere. |

| I have 2 Caldwells and an H3. Like the H3 just as much as the Caldwell and the folks there are GREAT to work with, very friendly and helpful. Only complaint is I need a different seat size but that isn't the saddles fault.
I wouldn't hesitate to get another one that's for sure!! |

| I have both and can say equal quality. The H3 customer service when I ordered mine was exceptional!!! If I was going to buy another, I would go through H3 for sure!!! |

  Location: SC/Ga line | Performance Saddle Company (www.pscsaddles.com) is the company. Kari owns it. She makes the H3 line for Erika Hodges and you order them thru Erika.
I have several of both. I just ordered 2 new PSC saddles from Kari. I love them. Anyone is welcome to come try mine. I have all 3 of their trees in saddles we use everyday.
And its nice to support Christians. |

So an H3 saddle is different than a PSC saddle? What is the difference in fit for horse and fit for rider? I have a flat tree and bought it from Kari. Now I'm curious what I have, is it a H3 or a PCS saddle?   |

If you got it straight from Kari, it's a PCS. I think they use the same trees in each series, just Erika puts some different options on hers. Give them a call or send them a message on facebook and I know they will be helpful! |

        Location: The Oklahoma plains. | I have had about 5 Caldwells and one H3 which is now PSC. My understanding is the H3 is no longer made. Either way- Kari is above and beyond as far as customer service. I didnt personally think it was the same level as the Caldwells but very close. My order had a few issues and they fixed them immediately. I am beyond a control freak and Kari handled every call and email quickly and with a great attitude. I loved my saddle all except for one thing. And you just never know till you ride one. I rode it for a year and sold it. They actually sold it for me- sent me a check right away. GREAT to deal with!! |
