I am overall happy with this purchase even though it doesn't fit the horse I purchased it for. It sits perfectly on my quarter horse that has a standard topline.
Although my other horse is NOT considered to be a wide stocky quarter horse type, he requires a full quarter horse bared western saddle. So I purchased this saddle. The saddle fitter said If I build up the shoulders it's a decent fit for him. I rode in it once, and it's simply too all around wide. His spine was sore from the saddle making contact right under the girth strap over the seat.
Since I rode in it once, I can't return it for the 6.5 gullet narrow tree that he needs.
The leather and saddle are good quality! I will either need to have a leathersmith cut the stirup leather to fit my 28 inch inseam or see about replacing them. I think once the saddle fits me, I will enjoy riding in it.
