Suggestions for a young growing 3 year old with narrower back and higher wither? I hate to drop a ton of cash since he will be growing so much over the next 3 years! I have been riding in a saddle that I thought fit but he has a pretty darn sore spot mid back. Having chiro out next week. Maybe that will fix it. Thanks.

I found the regular tree that's in the triple creeks (pro rider may use the same tree?) to work on a narrower horse.
Hopefully the chiro has some suggestions. Otherwise I also keep a CSI pad around to help solve some issues like this with growing horses and saddle fit issues, it's worked well as long as the fit isn't totally wrong.

Thanks!!! I have heard the corrientes also fit a wide variety and are reasonable. I am making my list! Thanks for the suggestions!

Denise Parker in west Texas has a really nice Mike & Talmadge Green Frontier Futurity. It's a 15" seat and is in great shape! If I was needing an extra saddle I wouldn't hesitate to buy it. They ride very nice and fit a variety of horses too. I've been trying to talk myself out of buying for a couple of weeks now honestly, so I hope someone else does soon so I can quit thinking about it. LOL
