The new Copper Mine is based on one of our all-time best sellers and we’ve upgraded the look by adding copper spots and copper cross conchos. It’s uses our most popular Flex2® trail tree which has a 4″ cantle and 13″ wide swell to provide a moderate seat, the standard in all-day comfort.
Flex2® saddles are designed to include comfort features for both the horse and rider that work in synergy with the Flex2® tree. Only Circle Y has the exclusive Flex2® tree design which uses a rigid ground seat for rider support, a high density bar which disperses rider weight, and low density bar which is against the horse and provides give for freedom of movement. This results in a lightweight saddle that’s an option for riders of all sizes and is proven to fit a wide variety of horses. The Flex2® tree will never get wider over time, flex in half, or overflex to create pressure points if properly fitted. Give yourself and your horse the lightweight comfort you’ve been craving!
Proper saddle fit is first priority. Use these general guidelines to help you decide which tree fit your horse needs. For more detailed information, please view our Saddle Fitting page and our SaddleFittingGuide-CircleY2016.pdf (1 download) .

My first brand new saddle and glad I went with Circle Y. The leather is well oiled and supple. I purchased from a local tack store at the same price online and then road in it 6 hours a day for 4 days in a row on tough mountain terrain. The saddle held up great, I was comfortable and my horse was not sore. Love it!

I finally bought a brand new saddle for the first time in my life. I’ve had saddles that fit my horses but not me, and I’ve had saddles that fit me but not my horses. My favorite horse was worth a good fit, as was I, so I purchased this beautiful Circle Y Copper Mine Flex 2 in the dark color 15″ seat. My mare loves it, and so do I. I can’t believe how long I suffered with other saddles. The leather is so flexible, my ankles and knees never hurt from stirrups turning in. It feels like a custom fit for both of us each time I ride. On top of it all, it is absolutely stunning!!
Circle Y has designed this 3/4″ thick wool felt pad with coordinating wear leathers to fit any Circle Y saddle. Wool felt is the preferred material for pads because it naturally absorbs shock and wicks away moisture keeping your horse cool and comfortable. 32″ drop.
The 1665 Pioneer Flex2® is great choice for a trail saddle because of the close contact skirt shape for more precise cueing and frosted beaded conchos add great eye appeal. It’s uses our most popular Flex2® trail tree which has a 4″ cantle and 13″ wide swell to provide a moderate seat, the standard in all-day comfort. The 3-way inskirt rigging which lets you choose which rigging position best suits your horse, and ErgoBalance™ stirrups decrease knee and ankle fatigue and promote balanced riding. Impact Foam™ in seat keeps you comfortable all day in the saddle. Available in regular, wide, or extra wide tree widths; choice regular oil or walnut finish. The coordinating saddle pad cut in the close contact skirt shape with matching wear leathers completes a pulled together look for your horse.

Medium: recommended for a horse with a defined wither
Wide: recommended for a horse with a round, or mutton, wither
Designed with barrel racer Tammy Fischer – 5-time NFR qualifier barrel racer, Calgary Stampede, and Rodeo Houston Champion. The treeless design keeps the rider in close contact and allows the horse unrestricted movement. Fleece lined neoprene skirts are flexible, molding to your horse’s shape and bending with your horse in the turns. For the rider that likes a deep seat, the upright swell and cantle keep you secure and positioned. Forward hung stirrup leathers keep your feet from getting behind you and provide the rider great flexibility in the stirrups. Aluminum rubber grip stirrups. “The close contact of my saddle lets the horse and rider connect in a way that traditional saddles can’t ” – Tammy Fischer
1308 features a 2 1/2″ Neck / 1309 features a 3″ Neck-the only difference between the two models so you can choose what horn height suits your riding preference
Saddle Fit: MEDIUM-fits most horses with a defined wither, WIDE fits most horses with a broad, or mutton, wither and foundation type conformation
SPECIAL FEATURES:
• The treeless design with wood swell and cantle, but no solid bars, provides unrestricted movement for the horse, especially important during the turns-the saddle is able to move and flex with the horse
• Ultimate close contact between horse and rider-because there are no bars, the rider is able to feel the horse and better communicate through clear cues
• Leg cut swells provide a place to set your legs, and because there is no rigid tree, the rider can squeeze with your thighs, staying centered and balanced
• Fenders are forward hung to keep your feet in front, but are also free swinging to allow a wide range of motion for the legs when needed
• Neoprene skirts absorb shock and distribute the rider’s weight
• The 5″ cantle and tall swells provide a secure seat. Available with rider’s preference of short or medium horn
• Lightweight design
• Great for the horse that is hard to fit or has conformation issues, the treeless saddle will conform to each horse. Regular fit in general fits horses with a defined wither. Wide fit is generally recommended for horses that are broad or mutton withered

The Alpine Flex2® trail saddle has a cut out skirt shape which allows closer contact and more precise cueing. It’s a favorite among trail riders because of the soft, Impact Foam seat, already broke in Softee® seat jockeys, and EBS stirrups which reduce joint fatigue give you total comfort in a brand new saddle. Engraved stainless steel conchos and stainless steel hardware resist rust and corrosion.
