What are your tips and tricks to prevent rubbing the hair off in the loin area? I thought I had it figured out until the winter coat grew in this year.

May I ask what saddle you are using? I have a hip high short backed horse and I feel like my Meleeta Brown and Wanda Bush saddles are too long for a 28 inch pad.

For daily riding I use a round skirt Bob Marshall. Its the only thing I have found that doesn't sore her. When I barrel race I use a Seven saddle. I've just got this saddle a short time ago so time will tell if it will work.
Also, a 28 is too short for the BM since that is 25" long. It would prob work on the 7 because that is only 24" long.
I initially rode her in a Thinline with the real wool so it would cover that area with no issue. I think I'm going to have to go back to that. If that doesn't work not sure what I will do.
