Some people say when you get to a 9 gullet you need to go up half a size, I have 10's and I didn't go up a size. All I can say is try before you buy, I love my crown c saddles The 2014 and older the seats are different the. The 2015. Just an fyi

Extreme Veteran Posts: 317 Location: MS	I've been riding in a 15" Ammerman 8 1/2" gullet . I need a 14" in the Crown C with an 8 1/2 gullet. I rode in a 14" with a 7 1/2 gullet and it was too small. I tried a 14 1/2 8 1/2 and it was too big, I bought a 15" FX3 and it was way too big. I would definately try one if you can. They all sit different. I think the gullet size has alot to do with it too.

Elite Veteran Posts: 1035 Location: TN	motherof2 - 2015-12-27 9:31 PM Which do you prefer? The Crown C or the FX3? I've had both and liked them both. For my horse's style and the way I ride I prefer the FX3. I can sit down easier in the turn with the fx3.
