Who has one? What can you tell me about them? I have never seen one in person, only pictures.

I was fixing to order a custom Caldwell, but was so unimpressed by the customer service that I have decided to take my business somewhere else, unfortunately. Are H3's comparable? THey look like it in pictures, but how do they fit and ride? I really hope someone comes on here and tells me they are BETTER than Caldwells! However, I would appreciate real honest opinons. thanks.

 I don't know that they are better then Caldwell, but they are on the same level for sure.  I don't think you can go wrong with either.  I had a horrible experience with Caldwell but I'm not allowed to share or other board buddies will crucify me

Just from hearing what happened to missroselee, I won't ever be doing business with Caldwell, even if I could afford one of their saddles.

H3 has donated towards benefits & charities that I know of, so I wouldn't hesitate to support them.

They must be nice because apparently no one ever sells them, pretty much impossible to find used.

If you can find a used caldwell I would recommend them, but if you are looking to custom order one, go with anyone else but them.   I have heard good things about h3's, but they didn't have the tree I was looking so I had to go elsewhere.

 I really love mine.    I just wish I could find someone with a flat tree who wants to trade for a twisted tree.   They horse I ride now with it I think would do better with a flat tree...     But otherwise love it!!!!

I have 2 Caldwells and an H3.  Like the H3 just as much as the Caldwell and the folks there are GREAT to work with, very friendly and helpful.  Only complaint is I need a different seat size but that isn't the saddles fault.   

I wouldn't hesitate to get another one that's for sure!!

I have both and can say equal quality. The H3 customer service when I ordered mine was exceptional!!! If I was going to buy another, I would go through H3 for sure!!!

Performance Saddle Company (www.pscsaddles.com) is the company.  Kari owns it.  She makes the H3 line for Erika Hodges and you order them thru Erika.

I have several of both.  I just ordered 2 new PSC saddles from Kari.  I love them.  Anyone is welcome to come try mine.  I have all 3 of their trees in saddles we use everyday.

And its nice to support Christians.

So an H3 saddle is different than a PSC saddle?  What is the difference in fit for horse and fit for rider?  I have a flat tree and bought it from Kari.  Now I'm curious what I have, is it a H3 or a PCS saddle?

If you got it straight from Kari, it's a PCS.  I think they use the same trees in each series, just Erika puts some different options on hers.  Give them a call or send them a message on facebook and I know they will be helpful!
