I have the saddle fitter out tonight and while I'm hoping the beast needs to go up a gullet size and readjust the flocking, I'm also aware that she might well say it's not quite suitable as he's just changed so drastically in the 6/7 months since I bought the saddle. The beast is only really worked under saddle twice or maybe three times a week at the moment, and long-reined once or twice although all being well that will pick back up in the New Year. I'm loathe to give him any more holiday as he's had a large chunk of the year off already and he's started to make quite a bit of progress in the last few weeks and if at all possible I'd like to keep that momentum going as we've finally got the chance to go to a different venue in the New Year.
In the interim has anyone had any experiences, good or bad, with bareback pads? Only for very light schooling and maybe a small hack if all is well!
