I just recently bought a Cactus CJ Record Breaker for my extremely wide mare. It fits perfect and leaves even sweat marks. My question is the very back of the saddle seems to stick up, does anyone else have a CJ saddle that does this?. I know the bars are flared but it seems a bit odd. But as I said the rest of the saddle fits the horse perfect. If anyone has any pics of their saddles could you post them? Thank you!

I don't have a record breaker, but I do have two CJ Wide trees. Same as your tree. My horses are really wide to, and even sweat patterns. I notice mine stick up a tiny bit the first few minutes you put the saddle on, then settle. If your sweat patterns are good and horse back is not sore, I think your golden.

I had one. The ends of the bars turn up away from the horse, but just the very ends. I'll try to post some pics. Sold it because it wasn't fitting him right after he lost some muscle

Thank you for the info and pics! My saddle sticks up just a tiny bit more than the pictures. I thought it would be ok but just wanted to double check thank you!
