Treeless Saddle

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has a treeless saddle, and how they like it? My horse rhiszo has a long back and gets hurt easily and its next to impossible to find the right fitting saddle. He almost has a tb build to him but qh like as well tried full qh bars semi, so I was looking into the treeless saddles and heard a lot of good things about them, provided with regular padding. Any advice is really helpful. Thank you so much, ps I know about rounding their back to strengthen it, but I think it leads back to the saddle because he doesn't quite get his feet under him like he should.
Thank you

Be prepared to spend alot on a pad. |It is very important to the stability of the saddle.

She is on page 10 of this post. She posts a nice picture of her mare with a treeless saddle
Look it up and PM her. A nice knowledgable lady

The lady I bought my gelding from has a treeless saddle and LOVED it....and so did her cats, lol. You say he has a TB build does that mean that he has high withers? If thats true, then getting a build up pad might solve your problems. I have a TB with a QH barred barrel, but his withers are so high and narrow they fit right into the pommel of my western saddle. I rode him in one of those build up pads and it was so much more comfortable. I tried looking at his pictures to see, but couldn't make anything out.
