I typically do great with a 17” jump saddle but the saddle I currently have gives me extreme ankle pain. I’ve heard some people switching saddles and their pain had decreased, but I’m not sure which saddle I should try. My horse usually goes in Medium to Medium-Narrow gullet and I’ve used...

I have never had this problem before, generally horses sort of know how to srtide themselves. My new boy is not getting his strides right EVERY TIME! He has a nice jump but is knocking them as he is putting an extra small stride in and making himself jump too deep. This isnt just in doubles it...
