| What are your thoughts on this saddle?
I have had the Tammy Fischer Treeless for a year now and I love the deep seat but I feel like I am sometimes fighting to "get up"... like when I pull myself up with the horn, the saddle actually feels like it bends and doesn't let me, possibly the treeless part of it..?
So I've been looking at going back to tree'ed and I've done a little research on a few different saddle brands but I always seem to go back to circle y. Price wise and quality wise they just always seem to fit. Since the Ultimate Cash has the 5" cantle like the TF does I thought that maybe it would be a good saddle to backtrack to a tree'ed saddle since I don't want to lose that "deep, secure" feel. |

Location: Texas | we have a josey ultimate with the flex tree and it fits everything I've put it on. The standard trees I have not had as much luck with it fitting multiple horses. |

| My gelding is narrow and my older circle y regular tree fit him fine, my mare is bigger but still pretty narrow through the chest/withers so I think I could probably get away with a regular on her also.
Has anyone actually ridden in this saddle? How did you like it?
Thanks!! :) |

Location: Southeast Louisiana | I have the ultimate cash and I love it. I bought it because it fit my mare the best of any saddles I tried on her. Once I sat in it, it just fit both of us like a glove. I don't have any problem getting up on the back side of a turn, and my mare is very turny and works off her rear end. That's why I was looking at the deeper seat. I have an older Josey saddle that I ride at home in, with a shorter cantle. But, she can really get down in the dirt and sometimes I felt that saddle drop out from under me. |

Thank you! That's what I'm looking for, something that still gives me more of a secure seat, but that I can still get up out of on the back side of the barrel. That's where I'm having my issue getting up quickly out of the saddle. As of now in the TF treeless it takes me a little bit longer to get up and I never had this problem in my old circle y. But my old circle y is very shallow seated and I just could not stay in it on my mare who sounds a lot like yours, very quick, turny and likes to get way down. |
