Couple of questions.
I did some forum searching and read that they she has moved to Circle Y, but all I can find her with is Reinsman. Can any one clarify?

I can't find any detail on the trees. One has a wooden tree and one has a flex tree. Is one the freedom fit and on the Extreme Flex?

I don't know anything about these saddles, obviously.

Thank in advance!

Only thing I can tell you is Circle Y is making all of the Reinsman products now, and the quality of those Molly Powell saddles are not what they used to be.  I would find a used one... oh and the old ones run small.   

Flex tree in the Freedom Fit and Reg in the Xtreme.

Yep...which is why I have no idea why Charmayne went with them.  I thought she was a stickler for quality.  Her new saddles don't impress me.

Years ago Molly was with Coats if I remember right.

Molly was originally with Coats and had a flex tree. They were having trouble with the flex trees and she then moved to Reinsman. Just an FYI...Coats replaced the bad flex trees with a solid tree on the Molly Powell's they sold.

As far as Charmayne...she follows a saddle maker and he moved from Cactus to Reinsman. Can't remember his name off hand. I'm thinking it could be Scott Thomas but don't quote me on that or beat me up if I'm wrong..LOL

I heard the same thing about the saddle maker.  I can't remember the name either.  I compared the Cactus vs the Reinsman side by side at the BRF.  Hands down the quality went to Cactus.
