Tips for purchasing a western saddle pad.

At first it can seems like such a simple task, just open that glossy horse supply and tack catalog that is laying on the table and purchase a new Western saddle pad.

However, just a few short seconds after opening the catalog it will be a revelation exactly how big a project needs to be undertaken. Instead of opening the catalog and finding the one or two saddle pads there will be page after page after page of saddle pads. Each saddle pad has its own cut, material type, and function. The magazine offers a brief blurb on each pad but nothing that is really helpful. The only thing that the blankets seem to have in common is the price - expensive.
