I'm pretty sure the saddle fits my butt :-) I Saddled him today and checked over It thoroughly in that area.Its an English endurance saddle and the panel is longer like that on a dressage saddle but the billets are normal length so i couldn't see anything that would be pressing their I also ride with a loose girth.So i went for a ride and I was wondering if maybe it could be caused be putting to much weight in the stirrup's while posting/climbing hill's? because the leathers are in that area.but his side is protected by the panel etc  any one ever hear of that happening before?

Thanks
