Anyone got one? All the reviews I found online are outstanding!
I'm thinking of selling my Stubben Dressage Saddle (brand new was $2,500) and getting this http://www.downunderhorsemanship.com/products2.cfm/ID/184/name/Aussie-Saddle-Without-Horn ... watching a few on ebay to see what they sell for.

My goals aren't to do any dressage but to just go trail riding with my buds. I just bought that dressage saddle because at the time, thats all I new was riding english or had english trainers.

So if you know of anyone with this CA saddle, please let me know if they love it as much as all the reviews say!

The barn owners where I have my horses at just bought one in June and he LOVE'S it. Its a pretty nice looking saddle but I would definately sit in one first before I shelled out that kind of money.

If you buy one from his site you get it for one week and one ride to try. I don't know anywhere else to even look at one.

I have one and I love it! The quality of the leather is incredible and it's not a huge saddle, nor is it too heavy. Unfortunately, Hubby stole it because it fits his horse so well. I'll get it back soon though!!!
