I had one for just a few months, I bought it for a horse that had saddle fit troubles. It didn't fit him either lol. It was a nice saddle, balanced, secure, lighter-weight. It seemed pretty narrow treed though. Get the wide tree if you do get one, I bet those are much more versitale for fitting horses. I won't ever let go of my martin all around. I know where you can get a used 16" if you know of anyone looking for one.
