Which Saddle Pad should I get (Western riders)?
I currently have the Reinsman saddle pad similar to this one (I couldn’t find an exact match to mine): http://www.horse.com/Reinsman-Navajo-Blanket-WJR02.html
For Christmas I’m thinking about asking for a Impact Gel pad or Professional’s Choice.
Here is the Impact Gel I’m thinking about: http://shop.impactgel.com/product.sc?productId=32&categoryId=7
Here is the Professional Choice I’m looking at: http://www.profchoice.com/htmldocs/prd/western/prd/wrtxii.html
What are the pros and cons of both? Please no mean comments, etc.
Thanks in advanced!
The Impact Gel ones are great, but they don’t last long, and they get ugly quick and they’re harder to clean.
The Pro Choice ones are made of that material that seriously lasts FOREVER.
I still have all my Pro Choice pads from years ago just like that and they look perfect. My Impact Gel pad is falling apart and is about 2 years old.
For my next pad, I’m getting one that’s made of similar material to the Pro Choice you picked out.
So, stick with that one (:
