Matrix Traditional Half Pad - AP 4.5 5 2 2
LOVE these half pads! I actually purchased three of these half pads, one of each type (Coolback, Woolback & Sheepskin) - what can I say, they were on sale at the time! I hadn't really used half pads before, and I wasn't sure which kind I would like best. I've settled on using the Coolback pad for my every day schooling - the function is nice; it gives a nice bit of extra padding & paired with the Matrix A/P liner, it helps wick away moisture on warm days (though you still end up with some sweat under the saddle#. I like the extra padding though. I keep the Woolback pad for lessons & training & save the Sheepskin pad for going places #shows, etc). All three are very nice, and I definitely use the Coolback one a LOT. But, my favorite pad is the Sheepskin - it feels so luxurious! So thick & soft...LOVE it! I would definitely recommend that if you invest in one of these half pads, that you also invest in the liner to pair with it...I think that it just works so much better with the liner!

Good quality and size / trim options I ordered the M in wool. I went with the M because I have a 17 (maybe 17.5) inch saddle and standard sized half pads are usually a bit small. The Medium is a good fit for my saddle offering about a half inch of fleece in front of the pommel and behind the seat. If you have a standard sized saddle, you should order the Small. I've only been using this pad for a month and with a new horse, but overall I think it is very well made and is a great half pad that is plush without being stiff. June 13, 2012

To Clip or Not to Clip I've heard that body clipping in the spring is "too late" because you're clipping over the newly growing in coat... What do you think? What's the best body clipping schedule? - Jessica N., Charlotte, VT
