Anybody have any experience with these? I know they are one of the brands given to the NFR girls every year. I'm borrowing a friends and think I may buy it. It seems very well made and maybe the prettiest saddle I'll ever own! Any experiences?
They look well made Griz. Have any pictures for us??
The only negative I would have is the resale value. They aren't a maker that is well known where I am from. Not to say they aren't a good saddle but may be hard to get what it's worth if you ever need to sell. Other than that, I say go for it if it fits!! Sounds like you found a unicorn!
I don't have one but have lots of friends who love them. I have looked at them and sat in them everytime I go to the store. They are comfortable and well made. I see some used ones for sale but not many so guessing people like them and keep them.
I seriously considered ordering one for quite some time, and while I did not in the end (financial reasons), I will say the customer service was fabulous. They answered every single question I had, stupid or not. I think they are beautiful and well made. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase one.
