Steve Brewer Posted September 22, 2008 Report Posted September 22, 2008 I Built this saddle on a Butch Cassidy tree.See what you think? Quote
Members Echo4V Posted October 8, 2008 Members Report Posted October 8, 2008 This is a beautiful saddle but, every saddle I've seen with a Butch Cassidy tree has been a swell fork. I assumed it Butch Cassidy saddles were modeled after the saddle of Butch Cassidy ( and the Sundance Kid) so is that incorrect? Is this a tree maker or am I just confused somewhere? What makes it a Butch Cassidy tree? Quote

I may have been confused on which saddles were being called a Butch Cassidy in the past. Again, this is a beautiful saddle. David Quote
