I ride bob marshalls as well and have since the 90's, with that being said LOL, everyone has an opinion on what to do and not to do. I used those Sport Cincha Girths, u know the ones that are preformed and made to mimic a saddles tree, i didnt like them. Most of the pads I use are thinner, I find the thicker the more they roll. Also depends on ur discipline, are u pleasure riding or barrel racing? I use the wool casa zia saddle blankets with no issues. Now i have hada vet tell me "a saddle pad/blanket is just to keep ur saddle clean, the saddle should fit like a glove or a nice shoe, in essence the pad is only a "sock" so to speak" Let me see if i have any pics....     |
