Really like it -
Love this saddle! It’s not as heavy as other western saddles and I can lift it with ease (60).
Color seems okay, pretty close to the photo. It’s comfortable too. Stirrups seem a little “ low costs” so I am putting some metal trail ones on.All in all, I like it. Only had 3 rides so far for about 1 hour each but so far so good!

Amazing Saddle
My mom has an older version of the Bear Trap so when it came to buying a new saddle I was pretty set on a brand I trusted. My mom surprised me with this saddle for my Birthday and it fits both my horse and myself wonderfully. Feel very secure when barrel racing or just trail riding. The width is a little too much (but only a touch - fixed with my tough-1 saddle pad) for my narrow wither horse but works well on my not so narrow wither horses!
Durability: 5
I really like this saddle, it is very comfy from the first ride. Fits me perfect but I wish it came in regular quarter horse bars as the FQHB is a little wide for most of my horses but it works out ok. Compares to my Circle y and my Tucker saddle. Definitely worth the price! This will be my go to saddle for sure..
Durability: 5
FINALLY FOUND MY SADDLE!
I absolutely love my saddle! I have tried all kinds of other saddles and thought this one is too good to be true for the price but it has far exceeded my expectations. It is SOLID and holds me in the saddle securely even when my horse isn't behaving. Not too much skirting, plenty of room at the withers and fits my round, large shouldered QH mare like a glove! Don't miss out on this bargain!
Durability: 5
Good saddle for a good price.
This is the first saddle I've ever purchased. I didn't want something inexpensive/low quality and couldn't afford really high end. The leather is good quality, fits both horse and rider, the seat is very comfortable, you feel secure in it and the saddle looks nice. Would have liked a little darker color and the cinch strap doesn't have holes for a cinch with a buckle but it's a good saddle for a good price. I was looking to try a bear trap and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
Great saddle!
I love this saddle! It looks much better than the picture. It has a dark brown suede seat instead of the orange. I prefer aluminum barrel stirrups so I ordered a pair when I bought the saddle. No one can believe how little I paid to get such a great saddle. Very comfortable! I've ridden in several others brands and models, but this one is my favorite. My horse in training loves it too. He's one of the lazy ones, but is more willing to work in this one than others that I've tried.

Love It!
I absolutely love this saddle! It is so comfortable and light. Fits my stocky Quarter Horse gelding who is hard to fit saddles to. When I got it, it was a very light oil with a orange seat... I darkened the seat to a dark brown and darkened the leather. Very nice with an easy horn to grab onto. The horn isn't rough like some horns. Easy to break in and doesn't give very bad saddle burns the first few weeks of riding in it.
Love this saddle!!
I have owned this saddle for about 13 years now and I wouldn't trade it. I have a friend looking for a saddle for herself and I she tried mine out. I told where to find this one.

So great I bought it twice.
I bought this saddle about 15 years ago and sold my barrel horse and the saddle went with him. When I went back to trail riding I missed my favorite saddle so I bought a new one 3 years ago. It is just as good as the old one. I love it.

Best Saddle I've Ever Owned
Been riding for over 35 years; mostly western/dressage. I've owned an American Saddle in the past and liked it, so I thought I would try another. Have ridden in several saddles including Passier, Stubben, Circle Y, Wintec, Crosby, etc. Now that I'm older, needed a good saddle for my young horse. Well-balanced and deep seat. The pommels are great for the trail. Fits almost any horse and is tough. This saddle does it all for me and is affordable.

I am 5 feet tall and need a shorter fender. What is the shortest length on these fenders?
BEST ANSWER: Unfortunately the manufacturer does not provide that information. These are standard size fenders.

If you call the manufacturer directly some will put on youth fenders for an additional price.

How long are the shortest setting stirrups on the 14 “ saddle?
BEST ANSWER: I have no idea how or what to measure but I am 5 foot tall and I could go up 2 more holes. However the swell of the fender might not let you get to the top hole. I like the saddle and it is very comfortable for me, but I only trail ride now as I am 75. Hope this helps you.

Does this saddle come with leather or nylon straps?
BEST ANSWER: Nylon straps. But the saddle is great!
Thanks for your quick response. The description didn't state this and I couldn't see it the picture. I think I'll order it, along with leather straps. Looks like a good one for starting horses.
