I need some help... I am selling my horse to a gal that is not a barrel racer. Her saddle is way too narrow for him. I use a Caldwell Maxxed out on him. He has very wide bulging shoulders and a flat back. She is aware that she needs to find a saddle that fits him. I highly doubt she will want to spend the money on a caldwell.. my experience with him has been factory saddles aren't wide enough. Is there a trail saddle... all around saddle out there that would fit him. He needs a true 8 - 8.5" gullet, flat bars. What direction should I tell her to look besides barrel saddles? I was thinking Martin?

Some of the ladys on here were talking about the Ranch Cutters and they do look a bit wider maybe look up some of these, they do come in different brands..

Tell her to look into a TOUGH ONE. It is a synythetic saddle. My trainer bought one to ride at home on her thick horse. Don't really know much about the tree widths available. Hers is pink and black. I told her if she started winning on the horse everyone would have one. Very comfy saddle for trail riding. Winter also has something. Those might be in her price range.

Allegany mountain saddles might have something. They have quite a few trees to pick from ( you can get a fit kit from them) and they are pretty affordable. I think around $1600 for a new saddle
