So I read the description on Tamy Semas' website and it says " Our Saddle is built on low bar angles to sit down on the horses back and make contact from the front of the bar to the back. There’s flare in the bar but no rock to the bar. It’s design will help open up the horses shoulder and allow the muscle to roll up underneath the bar. In addition, this bar pattern allows the horses back and loin to move freely. It’s designed to make contact without causing pressure points. We have two fits regular and wide. The regular tree fits most horses, our wide tree fits horses that are broader throughout their shoulders and backs."
Their wide is only a 6.75" gullet but I tried an older hereford on my guy the other day that had a 6.5" gullet and was wide enough. Any input on her saddles?
I have a wide treed Tami and it's too wide for my 16h, 1250# gelding (good back, but long shoulders). It fits my ultra-wide 17h, 1500# gelding like a glove. I wish I would have ordered a regular tree, rather than the wide. It's now for sale, so I can order the one I should have. I will say that the TS saddles fit nice on a horse's back- seem to have very even contact all the way along the bars. | |

Hmm, I had both a regular and wide Tami. Neither worked for my palomino I shared a picture of. The wide did temporarily until she filled out again (that's another story) . I kept my Wide for my colt, but sold my regular.
ETA- Neither worked on my petite mare, she has a racier type back. I wanted them to work so badly because I love the ride! I have two extremes and it sucks LOL

Lol I hear ya. I had 3 VERY different backs for a while. Now I'm down to one but he's the most difficult *sigh*. I still think I'll stalk any remaining barrel races this season to see if anyone has a TS wide I can set on him. Just in case. | |

If you ever venture East, I'm right on the ND/MN border and still have my wide Tami! | |
