Duck Duck Goose Posts: 1280 Location: Ohio	I am waiting on my Meleta Brown freedom fit to arrive to try on my hard to fit appendix. He is far from lean though. He is thick with a good withers and that dip to his back. He has been very hard to fit.

Elite Veteran Posts: 929	if you're looking for something cheaper I would recommend a Dakota or a Triple Creek. I have ridden my friend's appendix in both and both these saddles fit him really well.

	Have any of you used any special padding or shims for this? I do have an old Bio Fit Pad that was for a horse that we have already sold. OR does anyone treeless saddle to fit these horses? do you still need special pad or shims?

Expert Posts: 3782 Location: Gainesville, TX	I ride both of my horses built this way in a basic Billy Cook barrel saddle with semi-quarter horse bars. Fits great. And you can get them very affordablyl used. Sulphur, OK made of course.

Sulphur, OK made of course. Which model? I have a 1530 but it is too wide in the wither area... but if i build it up with shims it might fit better....
