Re: [RC] Interpreting Sweat Marks - Angie FuraThe dry spot is very prominent on the left side. I also have a little one on the right. I am pretty sure its not me. I've been evaluated by my instructor. Plus, my horse has had signifigant chiropractice issues. His barrel is slightly twisted upwards on the left. I get him adjusted every quarter, but the twist keeps coming back. I'm working on building symmertry with schooling exercises, but progress has been slow.
I have had difficulty putting my hand ender the saddle and feeling for contact. I can't get my hand under there properly to make a good connection.

My personal theory is...if you can get 4 good sized corners that aren't digging in, you're doing pretty well.
That said, if it was too much pressure in the middle of the saddle, you ought to have a little front to back wobble shouldn't you? If the dry spot is just on one side...see if you're twisted at all in the saddle. Kaboot used to have a dry spot on his left shoulder and I *finally* figured out it was me riding twisted to hold my wet sponge out on the right. Once I put my sponge away the spot went away.
