I have extra large trees on both my saddles - one for a very big (fat
for the moment ) arab mare and one for my smaller arab which has a very wide
strong back - no problem
I perfectly agree with you - very important to try saddle and not just for
one hour! One person's dream saddle is another person's nightmare...
I don't know much about the
saddle but I have visited the website several times. My sense is that
the saddles are built for narrow or, at best, medium width, horses.
I'd have a serious talk with the company rep and demo a saddle for long
enough to make sure it really fits before committing to buying one.
Better safe than sorry! Laney
