New saddle question

Extreme Veteran Posts: 534 Location: Ohio girl moved to PA	I got a new saddle saturday and im wondering how long everyone leaves their stirrups turned before attempting to ride in it? I just put a broom stick in them last night. Its suuuuper stiff so i know its going to take awhile lol. Any other tips or tricks? This is my first time getting a brand new one

This ^^^^^ I always wet the stirrup leathers while the stick is threw them and let them dry and then I repete. The water wont hurt the leather.
