Location: Canada		I am looking into getting another saddle, I currently have a Martin crown c (7wide) and Martha josey (regular tree?) I have a gelding that is too wide for both of them, I am wanting a new saddle that will fit a WIDE variety of horses, not just him. What brand does everyone recommend? I like the sounds of the cactus marlene flex tree but what's everyone's thoughts on them?

I have a crown c 11 inch gullet that actually fits my two 5 year olds.

For wide saddles, Lynn mckenzie saddles

Pozzi has a wide tree it may be the #10

Location: Riding Crackhead.		I like my Cactus CJ's for wide horses.  The swells are lower on some of them if you have a horse with a high wither that sometimes doesn't work.  I really like riding them though and fit most of my horses very well.

I have a Meleta Brown Freedom saddle here to try, and LOVE the way the shoulders are actually open enough they don't constrict the horse. It's not all about gullet width, it's about bar angle as well. Here's a site that explains saddle fit pretty well I think. Wimpyb on here is Meleta and she is awesome with saddle fit. She's helped me a lot over the last several years, and I don't even own one of her saddles.........yet. Plan on buying one here shortly. Love the new tree she has out!
