If you get a Double J and your horses is as wide as you say, then you need to check out the Pozzi wide fit.  |

| The wide fit they only opened up the gullet, the bars are still the same. Supposedly double j dealers have the trees to try on the horse. |

| If at all possible, I would have him fitted or at least try a few Pozzi's on that may be in your area. I had my gelding fitted by double J and he takes the standard #10 tree. Not at all what I THOUGHT he should've had, lol. |

Location: So. Cali. | I bought a wide fit last year. Very basic full rough out model, not very 'pretty' by any means. I personally LOVED the saddle. However, the wide fit did not fit my 'special' mare I had purchased it for and I sold it.

Location: Idahome | I just got my new Pozzi in yesterday and I am in love. Now, it is the standard tree and my horse is not built like yours, but if you can get the proper tree for fit it is sooo nice. I have been riding in a Merrill, but wanted a deeper seat because my horse is so strong in his turns that I was not riding well. I rode in mine last night and it feels so much better. I can actually stay sat down when needed, but I can sit forward and push when needed as well.
I have had a JJ Pro Racer in the past, but I love the Pozzi so much more. I dealt with Phillip that works for JJ and he mentioned that I could send pictures of my horse and he could tell me the proper tree. I never did because I had a friend with the standard that I could try, but that may be an option for you if there are no reps in your area. |
