Close Contact Saddles
Manufacturer: Collegiate
Model: Close Contact Jumping Saddle
Category: Close Contact Saddles
Purchase: I paid $700 at Lammles Western Wear and Tack. It was on sale from $900.
Likes: I like the way it fits me and helps put me in the right forward position. I also love the coloring and the way the seat feels for a short ride.
Dislikes: I don't like how during the first few months little black dirt things built up near the bottom flaps. The flaps also wore out very quickly from my stirrup leathers. And after more than one hour of riding the seat gets very uncomfortable and your legs get sore from having to hold them in the correct position without the help of any part of the saddle. The saddle pushes your legs forward so its hard to hold them under you.
Quality: The construction was very good, just not for long periods of time. The quality is very good, its a good saddle for someone who doesn't want to invest a lot of money in a saddle
Summary: This saddle is awesome but I like my Forrestier-Boechler even better because it fits my horse and me better and its really comfy.
