Expert Posts: 1419	Where should this saddle be placed?? Cinch does not look right and I'm struggling finding a pad and saddle placement. I totally give up as it is so tight I can barely get my fingers in the front of the saddle and he was fitted for it.

If you have to tighten your saddle so tight that it is cutting your horse in two then the saddle and pad combo that your using don't fit him properly. I ride mine rather loose but if it fits proper and is balanced, you can do that.

I’m not familiar with these saddles, is it possible the tree he was fitted for is not the tree that is in the saddle you bought?

Extreme Veteran Posts: 599	My horse was also fitted for a new saddle and I was told the KK FLex 2 fit her best. I couldn’t get a hand under the front of the saddle and it slid back numerous inches each ride. I was told by the dealer that there was a break-in period. I couldn’t find anything online that said that, so I called circle y. They said there is no break in period that they’re aware of, so I sent the saddle back.

Expert Posts: 1419	I was told this was the best fit also and they had to order it and I waited a week to get it from the maker. It is so tight in the front and I questioned that also when I got it as the one they tried on was not this tight in the front and was told that it "flexes" so its really not tight, this is without a pad and just sitting on his back. I dont think this can be sent back as it said absolutly no wear on the saddle when they sent it to me if I wanted to send it back.

Expert Posts: 1419	How would I know if what I ordered and what was sent was right. The serial number is correct but it just seems so narrow and tight?

Extreme Veteran Posts: 599	I was able to send mine back after two rides but it didn’t show wear. I was not comfortable with anything about the fit of the saddle. I customized one and it took 5 weeks to get it - but dealer still took it back as an exchange. I ended up getting a standard pozzi pro and it fits my horse very well.
