Location: Kalamazoo, MI | Has anyone used a sheepskin seat cushion that covers the top of a western saddle seat and hangs down the seat jockey? Likes or dislikes? |

They need to be real sheepskin to be effective.
Cool in the summer time and warm in the winter.

WA | please note that the lovely wooly seat cover that is cool in the summer and warm in the winter and gives a nice bit of soft coosh where you need it also turns into a sponge when it rains. yes, I learned the hard way.... |

We frequently ride in the rain. Unless it's a bad thunderstorm we just keep on move'n. If it is bad lightning then we'll seek shelter, but never from simple rain. Never had one get wet from rain.
I don't like riding a wet saddle period.. |

I got mine from Freedom Rider years ago. Freedom Rider at the time had equipment that helped people who had disabilities to be able to ride. Don't know if it is still in existence but have seen the sheepskin other places. |

When I rode in a western saddle it was the only thing that would keep my rump bones from getting sore. I currently have a memory foam seated saddle and while it is extremly comfy, I miss the warmth of the wool in the winter. |
