This time last year Rosie was getting a few White hairs across her withers so her saddle wasn't working. She was in a Heather Moffat fhoenix (older model which I still have) Tried a suber pad and didn't get on with it all - I felt perched and dry patches still the same. I gave in to my lack of expertise and called in a saddler, well known guy from Fordindbridge. Purchase a thoroughgood T6 synthetic on his advice. Have new gullet and reflocking done in Feb as she's lost weight over winter. This week I go to put back pre winter gullet as she's put the weight back on. Both the gullets I have, although different colours are exacty the same size!!! Drive all the way to fordingbridge where he tells me one has 'stretched' (is this possible?) and gives me a wider gullet 'for my trouble' as my two same size gullets are pinching a bit. Change gullet and it seems better but today still have quite small dry patches and to my horror the entire area, about the size of a hand, on both sides behind her shoulder is growing through totally solid White
Now I really don't know what to do - stay with new gullet or try looking for something else? What else? Am utterly flummoxed by all the options and pretty pissed off that despite trying hard to get it right I'm actually causing physical harm
