I was recently told that the seat of my saddle is too big for me. It has been suggested that I use bucking rolls for now until I can get another saddle.
Has anyone ever used bucking rolls on a saddle that is too big for them?
Pros and cons?

Just make a tight roll, foam covered with cloth will work, over a piece of cord then tie ends ( pulled tight ) to breast collar rings. You can make the roll what ever size around you need it needs to be long enough to extend almost to the breast collar rings. The only con to this is you will get kidded a bit. Pro is that it will keep you sit down in your saddle. This actually will work better than store bought leather bucking rolls.
I won a lot of money riding with a rig like this. It is also great for kids who need help setting down or who's saddle is a tad too big.
