RE: [RC] Protection of leather saddle in bad weather - Rae CallawayLOL - my first western saddle had a Pac-man horn too. It was a hoot. Nice to finally know what caused that.

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. :-) Angie =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
