| Please show me your Triple Creek saddles! Preferably dark oil or round skirt! I ordered mine yesterday and I am just so excited. This will be the first saddle I have ever bought new!  |

       Location: Oklahoma | Good luck with it. I have one from 2009. Lately I've heard many unpleasant stories about the quality of them. |

    Location: Wherever the Army sends my husband | I special ordered one last year and I have to say I wasn't overly thrilled with the customer service and they messed up the tooling but I ended up selling the saddle shortly after I got it. However I heard such great things about them that I wanted one. I ran across this one used, and so far I love it!edited to correct myself- it wasn't last year it was the year before.

       Location: Oklahoma | The older ones have held up better. I love my 2009 model but wouldn't buy another one after trying to talk to them about a saddle for the last 2 years and no responses. |

| Let's see if this works, I've never tried to post a picture before.

I bought mine last Christmas. Granted it's the bottom of the line model so didn't have many choices for customization, but I've been very happy with it. I love the way it sits, and it fits my horse much better than my old Circle Y. |

Ditto. Poor poor quality. Buy one used of a higher quality. You won't regret it. |

I've rode in a lot of saddles and i always come back to my triple creeks. i have brand new customs, to older model used ones. i must say, the older ones sit much differently than the new, the olds are a lot more snug if you ask me. but i love all mine, and i have about 4 or 5. this is my newest

This is kind of amazing because several years ago on this board, EVERYBODY had one (but me). I mean they were THE rage! What happened, did they change ownership or were they never "all that?" |

I think it is the fact their customer service went down the drain. I bought mine the end of 2008 and it still looks good and I've never had any problems. I've tried a handful of times since then to buy another one and the lack of contact has made me say never again. I do love mine and wouldn't trade it but I won't buy another one |

This'll be my first TC, so we'll see how i like it.
I didn't have any problem whatsoever getting ahold of someone there, and getting my questions asnwers, ordering, etc. Lynn replied to my emails pretty much right away. |

       Location: In The Snow, AZ | For those purchasing new ones, please keep posted on how you like them! They sure are pretty! Would love to hear if they're quality to boot. |

| I bought one from them that was in stock. It is a Silver Series with a faux gator seat. The saddle is extremely light weight. So far it rides good but it doesn't fit down on any horse I've had it on. Plus the gator seat is rubbing off. It's an ok saddle but don't expect them to last. You get what you pay for. Mine was $970. |

I have heard that about the new ones. Mine has a stingray seat and it has held up. It is the full QH bars and has fit everything I've put it on with using different thickness of saddle pads. |

You got the lowest priced materials from them. They will tell you that they do not hold up as well as the higher priced materials/options they offer. I know it says affordable without compromising quality on the website but we all know you get what you pay for and a $970 brand new saddle just isn't going to hold up to hard use.

If you tried to contact Jason directly, then no you won't get a hold of him LOL Try one of the reps. Usually Lynn or Shelley are super easy to get a hold of and email or msg back instantly. Not sure why you've had trouble? |
