[RC] Endurance horse/rider sizes - Betty EdgarMore than the
actual weight is the fit and style of saddle that will be carrying the heavy
weight person. It's important that the saddle fit well and distribute that
weight over the largest possible area. Imagine carrying a 40 lb. backpack
with evenly distributed weight covering your back; then consider how it would
feel if there were a couple of protruding objects that pushed most of that
weight into your back in just those two spots. Get the
picture?
