To numnah or not?



Saddle needs to move back half an inch, but is the numnah too.. obvious? Intrusive? Visible?

I haven't taken it off the saddle since I got it in March, and the judge didn't comment in the workers at the last show.

But if we do a flat class this weekend, I'm not sure whether to leave it on or not..

Try and look past the stirrup leathers, I just can't be bothered taking them off to oil them.

leave it on. the saddle is fairly small on his back as it is, i think the numnah makes it look better. i'd have it a touch further forward though, so you have some fluff at the front and not all at the back. leave numnah where it is and move saddle back!

Will see if I can, it depends where the seams are. Might have to wash it first, there is a clear flattened space where the saddle sits in it!
