I want to thank all who responded to my request for
information on no sweat vent pads. It appears that like neoprene girths,
some horses get sore spots from these pads and some don't, regardless of whether
it is a DM pad or another brand. The DM pad is a bit thicker, but some
users are seeing compression in a few years of high usage, as do the
other brands. All in all, most people who can use them like them because they do
keep the saddle pads cleaner and a bit dryer.
My 11 year old says endurance riders are great
because they're willing to share all their knowledge so others can be
successful. What a great resource you all are! See you on the trails this
year...
