Holy Flock Balls! 🎾
Is it time you gave your horse some saddle TLC?
Remember that your saddle’s panel is there to distribute your weight evenly over your horse’s ribcage… but imagine it having lots of old hard and lumpy balls of flock instead of a soft, balanced, well-maintained layer of wool flocking 🤔
It is advisable to have your saddle reflocked every 2 to 4 years (depending on how often you’re riding).
Even in ‘new’ second hand saddles, who knows how many different types of flocking are inside that panel creating a rough, hard and unbalanced bearing surface causing pressure points?! 🥹
Give me a shout if you need your saddle assessing for reflocking 🐎
