I'm looking at ordering a Double J for my new gelding, but not sure which model. I've been riding him in my 1995 Josey Paywindow with semi QH bars but I think it's a little big on him and slides forward, also had some bucking happening which I think is saddle related. He is barely 14.1 hands, 100% cutting bred and petite but well-proportioned for his size, if that makes sense. He has a short back and somewhat prominent shoudlers. Double J doesn't have a saddle fitter in central OK and I don't want to wait until theirs is here for the BBR in April. Thinking about doing their demo program but not sure which saddle to try. Any suggestions are appreciated. I have been in contact with Double J but haven't got this far to ask they guy and they are now closed for the weekend :-)

LYNN McKenzie. Great for high withers or race built horses. My guy is high withered, short backed and narrow for 16 hands. The lynn fits perfect. I got a round skirt to help his short back because he really breaks in his turns. The way it sits off the withers helps free up the shoulder movement but if he has wide shoulders they also have a Lynn wide.
