I too am struggling to find a saddle - my mare seems to be
impossible to fit. I haven't tried a sports saddle yet (I was
hoping they would be at the convention). My concern about the sport
saddle is that I too spend a lot of time sitting in the saddle,
currently. I'm not a heavy weight rider, but this still concerns
me.
I have done long rides in mine where I am walking and sitting,
either to bring the horse back into condition or ponying another
horse. I have never had a problem from sitting with this saddle,
though I weigh about 125. I still think the equalizer foam
(SKito) is very important to use with this saddle.

Good luck, and if any of you discover some more valuable information
please send it my way.
