| Didn’t Lisa use to have a saddle line with Circle Y? I saw a picture of her from last night and she has a a says Martin on both sides and the saddle doesn’t quite look the same as hers from circle y... is there something in the making there? Or what happened to circle y? |

| Martin just announced on their facebook page that they’ve partnered with her, so I imagine she’s riding the prototype.

Do you know why with Jackie? I wonder if another brand will be making her treeless saddles then. |

I think Jackie has a deal with Double J now and it is a flex tree.

I wonder if they changed the saddle look entirely because I can't find it on their site. I found the barrel saddle flex trees but none of the descriptions said anything about it being from Jackie. |

Most of these deals are so new they squeak. Give them time to create and test stuff for a little bit. |

Yes, Jackie announced the deal on her FB page just last July |

I've struggled with saddle fit on my mare. The lisa Circle Y fits her the best but I hate that saddle. I'm so anxious to see what martin comes up with. |

Agreed and she's already sponsored by classic equine. It just makes sense. They will make a way nicer saddle.
Jackie Jatzlaw doesnt have a deal with double j I think she just tried it and liked it and promoted it. It doesn't have her name on it or anything...maybe in the future there will be but it's silly to have your name on a saddle when your not using it anymore. *Cough* like Fallon Taylor...... |

I think Jackie is hurt right now and has a lengthy rehab ahead of her. |

I sat in one and didn't love it. But I can't specially say what it was but comparing comfort to the others, it wasn't my favorite. Not a great review but just my opinion. |

I would like to see a Stingray, FX3 and Crown C all together and sit in them all. Just to feel and feel the difference. I like mt FX3 but the new Stingray is tempting. |

Location: North Dakota | Yeah, I saw that ad in BHN that Lisa was teaming with Martin now. I'm curious what they will come out with.
I have one of her Circle Y saddles for my horse Red. He's big a thick like Louie so it fits him fantastic and I love it. However, I do agree the quality of the saddle is not what it should be. Leather is not that great, part of the stirrup leathers are nylon instead of leather, etc etc. Am dissappointed with that, but it fits my horse great and feels comfortable to me.
With that said, I just bought another Circle Y saddle this fall that I found to fit my other horse Shotgun. It is from their Performance XP line and wow, the quality is so much better than their "regular saddles". Super nice leather, good craftmanship, and a lifetime warranty on the tree. I don't know why they don't make the rest of their saddles nice anymore like that .... but I suppose it has to do with money.

Location: North Dakota | I was told by a dealer that Lisa's new "Fearless" saddle with Martin has more of a flare at the front for larger shoulders and no rock to the bars. I'm chomping at the bit to try one of these, as that's what my horse needs. I am a little nervous though that it's a flex tree.

| I have a Circle Y lisa and like it, but agree not the highest quality. I messaged Martin for a spec sheet but the said they didn't have one yet and would only tell me the gullet size. |

I will Jackie. The Circle Y Lisa fits her but I really detest the quality. I checked out the new Lisa at WESA market in Denver and looks and feels really good. Hoping it works on the mare. They are spendy though and I'm getting it wholesale through the store. Still putting a kink in the check book. |

Happy for Lisa for being able to put her name on a better quality saddle....Hope you will love your new saddle! |

Me neither! It drives me crazy. That's the only way Martin has figured out how to keep their fenders up under you and not rocking your feet back to your horse's flanks is to run the bottom leather through the skirt and keep them pulled forward. |
