Online is my only option for saddles unfortunately because of where I live. I would like to make a decent guess at a size for him before I try ordering one.

I'm leaning towards a pozzi (I just don't know if I should order a standard, wide or maybe even extra wide? I've had a rep tell me one and double j suggested a different  then the rep eek.. idk!!)

I would like something with a deep seat to help me sit my turns better :) but that I can still get up and out of to drive him forward out/iN

 

thoughts? he does have one shoulder larger then the other... I have a shim pad I adjust if needed and we are probably up 100 lbs since pics

I love my Double J Lynn M Special. It fits my big wide mare and my lean running bred gelding (use a different pad of course). Sits really deep with feet forward. Love the way it sits.

How wide is the gullet on them?

the double j rep told me a wide and double j themselves told me a standard? I know its based off pictures so its hard to know. I would just like to make as best a guess I can if I should order a wide first?

I meant to specify that I have the Nueva tree, not sure about measurements and I couldn't find any online. I'll have to measure it when I get home. :

I have the Double J LM wide and it has fit everything I've put it on so far. Just have to pad appropriately
