Then you apply pressure or girth it up.Then you remove the saddle and where it is not making contact with the back will be a bare spot on the saddle panels?Just wonder if anyone has tried it or heard of this.Sounds interesting.

Location: Hutto, TX		Ride early or late, hose the horse off before and after, electrolytes, and covered arenas and trees!  It isn't even June yet and we are in July weather.  There won't be a second cutting of hay if this continues.
