RE: [RC] Protection of leather saddle in bad weather - Rae Callaway

LOL - my first western saddle had a Pac-man horn too.  It was a hoot.  Nice
to finally know what caused that.

3. Apply lots and lots of Neatsfoot.  (Being cheap I usually have 
used 
Neatsfoot compound). 

Every saddle maker I talk to says not to use Neatsfoot since it rots the
stitching. Back when I got my first western saddle...which was a cheap
one, I SOAKED it in neatsfoot, daily, painting it on with a brush, to
break it in. The leather lasted a long long time, but the stitching on
the saddle horn rotted and I could make my saddle horn "talk" which
amused me to no end. :-)
