A half pad is placed under your horse's saddle to provide extra cushioning and protection.
Here's how to wear a half pad:
- Placement: Half pads fit under your horse's saddle, either on top of a thin saddle cloth or sometimes directly onto the horse's back. According to references, it's important to note that there are many different types of half pads available on the market.
- Function: Half pads are designed to absorb shock and can help prevent the saddle from slipping.
In summary, ensure proper placement directly under the saddle, with or without a thin saddle cloth underneath, depending on your preference and the specific pad.
