Marlene Mcrae(or is it Meleta Brown i'm thinking of? I will check) is suppose to be excellent with saddle fitting, as well as lynn mckenzie, double j, martin

It's Meleeta brown who is really good at saddle fitting. She helped me with my hard to fit gelding. I have heard that several others are good, too. I just called her first and luckily her new tree was the one for my horse. I got to try it and then buy it. |

| Not only did Meleeta's saddle fit my horse, it also fit me better. I would always get off and be stiff in my hips but not since riding in my Meleeta saddle. |
