Worth Keeping Around
I am so in love with this saddle. It is perfection: beauty, comfort and fit. I recently sold my horse but am hanging on to this one because I know it will be perfect for my next horse and I love it too much to see it go.

Circle Y Saddle
Very well made saddle, it fits my high withered, hard to fit horse while giving him the shoulder clearance that he needs.
Charlie and Josh were very patient and helpful during my selection process.

Special Features
 |
The Flex2 tree has a rigid ground seat with a dual bar system that provides both stability and flexibility where it's needed. This tree is available for riders of all sizes and has proven over time to fit a large variety of horses. |
 |
Tired of a sore butt after a days riding? The impact foam seat offers you unmatched comfort in the saddle. Engineered to offer maximum cushion without wearing down quickly, this seat is everything you've been looking for to get you through the trail. |
 |
Annoyed with the break-in period of your new saddle? No more! Softee Leather is revolutionary. Real full-grain leather with a broken in feel. Softee seat jockeys and fenders are ready to ride right out of the box. |
 |
The Flex2 Tunnel Skirt creates a channel in the spine area which will decrease rubbing, sore spots and any kind of pressure along the spine. The tunnel allows for hot air to escape while cool air flows in. |
 |
The Neo-Shock skirt absorbs shock from rough terrain and uneven surfaces through the neoprene filler. This filler is designed to muffle any vibration for a smoother ride for both you and your horse. This skirt also conforms to the conformation of your horse. |
 |
EBS (ErgoBalance Stirrups) tilt the stirrup to eliminate torque on the riders knees and ankles. No more sore joints after your ride! This will provide you increased comfort while promoting balanced riding. |
 |
The Slip-Not skirt liner features the XPG gel bar pad for the horse's comfort. This skirt liner replaces the standard fleece lining of your saddle. Some benefits to the Slip-Not liner are better grip on your horse, easy-cleaning and cooler for the horse. |
 |
3-Way adjustable in-skirt rigging with several rigging options and positions to best suit fitting all of the different horse conformations. |

Love this saddle
The Julie Goodnight Monarch Saddle does not disappoint. I can honestly say that the pictures on-line don't do it justice. It is the right fit for my horse and super comfortable for both of us. The saddle does deliver on quality and craftsmanship.. I also purchased it with the Leaf brow band headstall and I am getting spoiled with the quick bit hook up.
I did purchase a thin nonslip pad tp go with saddle and performance pad. It works like a charm.

Wonderful Saddle
I can't say enough great things about this saddle. As a women it fits me so much better in the seat area and it's so comfortable. I can ride for hours with no discomfort. I have tried other saddles and my horse definitely can feel the difference as well. He moves so much nicer and seems happier.

Cons:None

Love this saddle! Would buy it again!
Due to an injury, I had to switch from riding english to western. This saddle allows me sit western dressage, or hack around out on trail. All 3 of my horses move out very well with this saddle, and I can ride for hours and I'm not fatigued at all. Super comfy! My only complaint was the leather underside: the saddle pad seemed to move a bit. But I found a very thin no-slip liner, so problem solved!
Pros:Comfortable for me and my horses
Great looking

Cons:Fenders were a bit stiffer than I was expecting
Underside a bit slick at the outset

Great Close Contact Saddle
I bought this saddle after moving from Dressage to Western Dressage because I wanted a close contact saddle. It allows full seat and leg contact with my horse. I also like the flex tree, because my horse has a history of back issues and it fits him well.
Pros:Seat and leg position, Fit on horse
Cons:Pads slide easily

Love at first sight, and use!!
I LOVE this saddle, it is beautiful, and very comfortable to trail ride for hours! I bought this saddle because of the great reviews and comments on providing relief from knee pain, it definitely does exactly that. Also I am 5'5" tall and have a 17hh TB and I have no problem lifting this saddle up on him. So very happy with my purchase I will be riding many trails with it for years to come! Thank you for designing such a wonderful saddle.

Amazingly Comfortable Saddled
Being a dressage rider, western saddles put me in a chair seat and hurt my knees. Not this one, it puts me leg right under my hip. The saddle is so comfortable. I sold a fancy custom saddle that made my knees and ankles ache. I could ride in this saddle all day long and never get tired. Love love love this saddle!

Beautiful, comfortable saddle!
Very comfortable saddle, will be used for 12 hour shifts of mounted security patrol work, for frequent trail riding, and for training my own horses. Good quality leather without being too heavy.

I would NOT buy this saddle again
This saddle is comfortable for rider and horse, HOWEVER, every pad and blanket I use under this saddle slides right out the back!! INCLUDING the circle Y pad it came with!!!! I have tried several different pads and blankets and different thicknesses. I've even tried it on different horses with the same result. I WOULD NOT BUY THIS SADDLE WITH THE "NON SLIP" BACKING!!!!

Nice looking saddle but!
Bought this product looking for a lighter weight saddle and comfort for my knees. This meets both of those needs with the added pleasure of a comfortable seat on long rides. Did not like that the seat leather wrinkled after only 3 rides, and with the added foam in the seat makes me sit a little more forward of my center of balance. Is this just a period of adjustment or does the foam press down a little after more wear? If not I would suggest ordering a half size larger.

Great Good Looking Saddle
I use the saddle daily for training and also show in it. The saddle broke in immediately and has just gotten better with use. This is a gorgeous saddle that is pretty enough for show and comfortable enough to go down the trail all day in. I'm very happy with the purchase. I'm petite and they customized the fender length, and the saddle fits me well.

Wonderful saddle
Very comfortable for myself and my horse. Great rigging options were included. At 5'11'' I have the stirrups maxed out. Not that I need more length, but wish the stirrup shape were for longer legs.

Best saddle out there!
I bought one in the light oil with full bars for my AQHA foundation bred gelding. We both love it. Then bought a second one in the walnut with regular bars for my Appaloosa. Best purchase I've ever made. Older rider and sure enjoy the comfort and features. Julie Goodnight knows what works.

Julie Goodnight Monarch Arena saddle
I mostly trail ride in every kind of terrain. I also plan to do arena and ring work with this saddle. I've used it on several different horses and it fits beautifully. It's a very good looking saddle and most people comment on how lovely it is. This is my first Flex2 saddle and I love the light weight of it but most of all I appreciate it's COMFORT!!! I'm thoroughly satisfied and happy with this beautiful saddle.

I have never ridden in a more comfortable saddle! It puts you in that just right position. This saddle required no break period and was comfortable from day one! The leather is super soft and supple, I couldn't be more pleased.

The stirrups are not pre-turned.
I ordered this saddle and waited the 2 months to get it. The stirrups were not pre turned as described. Had to put a board through them just like any other saddle I had bought through the years to train the leather to ease stress on knees. Don't know why they advertise something they don't do.
