        Location: on my horse | New mare is stouter than my gelding was, Sharon Camarillo is pinching, anybody have any suggestions? Caldwell is out of my budget, could probably swing a martin, going to PM poor WimpyB again She's lost enough weight that I can see that the Camarillo is never going to fit her.
Now a question on treeless, do Jackie Jatzlau hang your feet underneath you or push them in front of you? This has been bugging me for a while haha.
Attached pics are going on a month old so bear with us, I don't have any updated ones tonight.
ETA: I lied, headless pic and pic with kid on her are current.

This is what I went to with my mare. So far I love it. Fits me and her well. |

| I tried several on mine. Have a new to me older model Double J (Charmayne James has her name on it, that's how old it is). My gelding is built very stout and I was having a heck of a time fitting him. This saddle fits him like a glove. If I can get them to post I'll put pictures out so you can see the shape of my horse. Sorry, I cannot get the pictures to resize small enough.

          Location: Riding Crackhead. | If the Cactus CJ is too wide a good one to try that another poster mentioned is an old Double J CJ. I was an idiot and sold mine a few years ago. Would love to find it again. We also have a Cactus Brandi Halls. Its got straighter bars than a CJ, less flare but made for a higher wither. My horses are too wide for the one we have. |
