Anyone know anything about them? Looking into one and I've heard of them but know nothing. Quality? What kind of tree? What kind of horses do they fit? Just looking for general info.

Have always rode in one of Mike's trees from Caldwell to pro rider. Sold all the older ones except the Caldwells and bought two new ones. The new saddles you must go through Mike or Janelle to buy. Triple Creek makes them but it is using Mike's tree and you order through Mike or Janelle. We seriously like the TC ones better than even the original Caldwells. The tree fits lots of different horses, is comfortable, and no problems staying balanced or getting behind that we've had when we strayed into other saddle brands.
ETA: I will not purchase a Bethune or Pro Rider Mike Green anymore. They tend to not fit a lot of horses and pop up in the back.
