Ridecamp: [RC] [Guest] Bob Marshall sport saddle

Christine K cnken13@xxxxxxxx

I've been trying my friend's SS which I love, except for the stirrups being
too far forward, and my horse seems to be happy with it as well.  I'm
considering buying one, but both my vet and the local saddle shop are
skeptical because there is no tree to support the rider's weight on the
horse's back.  I've been told the Skito pad solves this problem.  My vet
says there was a study using a special pad with computer analysis that
showed pressure points on the horse's back.  I would love to hear ANY
feedback regarding your experience with the saddle.  Thanks!
