Looking for opinions on saddles that would fit. My horses have all been built broad and this guy not so much. Opinions please!

LOVE my Merrill. My horses tend to be on the narrow side and it fits all of them beautifully. We went through 7 before we found it and I finally went and had them fitted because I was tired of messing around with it.

I would look into a Martin BTR.  Do you have any friends with one close by that you could try?  Lots of people have luck with them fitting higher withered, narrow horses!!  Good luck!

He seems to have thin high withers like mine. To fix my saddle since my gullet is wide I was able to add teardrop shims and help fill in the wither space and lift the saddle up more so it wasn't crunching down on his withers.
