I just tried a friends and it didn't fit her gelding or my mare. Rolled on both of them and seemed a bit wide. |

 Location: Missouri | I just received my (first new) saddle from Corriente and I love mine, it fits my horse and myself.
I know three other barrel racers that received their saddles and I haven't heard complaints.
Good Luck! |

  Location: Ohio girl moved to PA | I just got one as an award saddle and its beautiful! i love it, but its too wide for my guys. Dumps down wayyyy too much in the front. Sucks bc its super comfy and very well made and as far as i know they dont have an option for different size trees/gullets. |

       Location: In The Snow, AZ | I have three, JUST received my new trophy saddle. Canβt wait to try it this weekend.
Iβve not had any issue with them fitting, but will change pads depending on the horse. I would definitely recommend the roughout. The fully tooled one, even with the suede seat, is hard to sit.

     Location: New York | My corriente trophy saddle has waaay nicer leather than my double j and fits horses better than my caldwell did. Not my favorite as far as how it rides, but for the price you definitely can't beat them. |
