[RC] [Guest] How well saddles hold up to 100s (an Ansur answer) - Ridecamp Guestpatty bass sounds llike we have been given the same answer. the panels flex enough that the horses have burned backs. at ride time it shows up as a tender back but a few days later the hide peels. i can lessen it by keeping a dry pad on at each vet check but i guess i will just have to get the shorter panels. anyone have the short panels that has also ridden with the regular panels?

About $300. I will probably do it. I will not part with it in any case. But I think the new panels are shorter in the front, I have a short backed horse too. A lot of us seem to have the same problem. The panels scuffs his loin area. I dont know if this will help that problem or not. I do know that part of his problem is me! I have been letting him travel with his head too high, thus shortening his back muscles which has added to his discomfort. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
