I don't know what the difference is between the two. I hate that happened to you, I love my Caldwells

I hate that happened to you, I love my Caldwells It might help if i had pics of front with tape of someone's Promax, and someone's maxxed out along with mine she might have to take a look then. It would help those sending pics if they could take a pic with tape way up where it meets the swell, then another mddle of conchos

I think yours does look like a 7" gullet.

Elite Veteran Posts: 784 Location: USA	I have a maxxed out I will go measure it. I will take a picture of it and text it to you. Can you pm me your cell number and I will send it. What number is stamped on your saddle? the 5300 is a promax, 9053 is a maxxed out. The pro racers are 7" gullet..... promax is 7 1/2" Gullet... maxxed out is a 8" gullet.

Meanest Teacher!!! Posts: 8555 Location: sunny california	thanks everyone. I tried it on my new horse again and it fits better than it did when he first got here so I just might keep it the way it is. i think I will ride it for a month then if needed send it back for a new tree.

Did I miss the party? Posts: 3864	I have always thought a ProMax "seemed" more than 1/2" wider than a Pro Racer as well. I've also felt the same on the twist trees from a TG to a Rocket. It seems like more of a jump than 1/2" but, I've never taken the time to measure honestly. The mid size trees of both lines have fit everything I've owned for 10 years now. I love them! I have NO idea how I made the TG and Pro Racer work on anything back in the day when that's the only ones we had to choose from. They seem so narrow to me now, LOL! I had a pad modified with cut outs on a big horse I ran in a Pro Racer. It worked :) I can measure my ProMax and take photos if you need more to compare.
