Re: [RC] Has anybody ever tried or heard of this being done? - Diane Trefethen

I love my aussie saddle but would really like a closer contact feel and a bit more "cushiness" on the bottom for my horses. That said I had this wild idea of getting all or most of the stuffing taken out and lining it with a 1" (maybe a little thicker) piece of memory foam. I know it has done wonders for my back at night adding a 2" pad of it to my mattress. Has anybody heard of this being done with any type of saddle but specifically an aussie? Or maybe seen it used in a saddle pad? Definetly want to hear any cons to it.

Assuming you go ahead with your plans for your saddle, despite OR because of what responses you get here on Ridecamp, I think you should contact your saddle's company and tell them what you are doing and ask if they want to help sponsor your experiment. If they agree, you might get the work done on it for free and if your experiment proves successful, they could start a whole new line of saddles, maybe called Raines, with the first model the Jess. I think that has a nice ring to it... a Jess Raines Saddle.
