The English Saddle I bought has an adjustable gullet. We measured him and he took the widest one that they make. It still clears his withers tho. After I bought it and had the trouble at the competition the lady there that was supposedly good at fitting saddles told me that the gullet was not the only thing and that Windtec's advertising was a bit misleading. Now remember I'm just repeating what I've been told:) It think it's a good saddle, it is just going to need some tweeking to get it right for him. And I will look into it so I'll have a back up if the Western fails again.

Yep, English saddles are made with the narrow-backed, high-withered Thoroughbred type in mind. When you get a nice muscled-up QH with shoulders like a fullback, sometimes that saddle looks like a pimple on a piecrust. . . .

You can hardly see my mare when she's facing you, she's so narrow.
