Hello 5 Star,

I love these 5 star pads. I have purchased several pads mainly to see which I was happiest with, as in quality, looks, durability and these 5 star pads won hands down.
I had this concho with my initials.  We had seen the leather with
brands, initials, etc, but with my square skirts, there would not have been enough room.  This ended up working out great, and the sterling silver looks beautiful against the black color.

Thank you!
Jana

Dear 5 Star Equine Products:

Although I was not unhappy with the quality of my previous saddle pad, but was very curious to try out 5 Star Pads that I had been hearing and reading so much about.
I knew I was getting a quality pad that was going to be better for my horse because of the shock absorbtion and breathability that natural wool provides. I was also excited to have a pad that was personalized with my name and company's logo.
I was surprised at the instant improvement in my saddle fit. My 5 Star pad provides a closer, more balanced contact with my horse. I noticed a huge improvement the first time I worked my horse on the barrel pattern with my 5 Star pad; it allows him to stride out longer and smoother as well as collect and get "round" in his turns. I so am thrilled with the quality and science behind this saddle pad, I had to let you know!

Thank you so much!

Dear 5 Star Equine Products

I just received your saddle pad and used it twice so far on my Paso Fino trail horse. What a wonderful product! I am so pleased with how comfortable my gelding seems to be. I've noticed that he doesn't roll as soon as he's turned out after his post ride rinse and I can only attribute this behavior to the fact that his back doesn't feel sore. The pad dries very quickly and is so soft. And, of course, as you stated in your product information I don't have to tighten the saddle as much even though it's a custom made saddle built for him.

Thank you

Hello 5 Star Equine,

I am very happy with your saddle pads. I rode with Impact Gel pads for 4 years, up untill I found your pads. I now own 35 star saddle pads and I have since sold all my impact gel pads. Your saddle pads have really made the horse industry a better place, now I can depend on your products to keep my horses from getting sore with all the strenous activity they go through each summer and winter. I recommend your products to everyone I meet. I honesty will NEVER go back to using impact gel, because they made my horses sore and hindered their performance. Thanks for prodiving the horse industry with a pad they can trust for the next years to come.

Thanks again

Hi Mike!

I don't know if you remember me, but you cut a pad for my daughter's pony last year. You had asked me to send a picture and I have not had one that I liked that I could see her name on the pad to be able to send. Now I have one!
This is Hailey Schewe, age 6, and her pony, Poco, age 26.
We love the pad and have had many inquiries as to where I got it. I just purchased another one, so now all my horses have 5 Star pads!

Dear Mike, 

I have finally got a chance to give your pads a good test.  I really like them.  I never had one that fits a horse's withers and back so well.  Anyone that asks I will recommend  the 5 Star Equine Pads. 

Thank you for considering me and have me try out your pads.  Also, my son, Luke, who used to work for Sandy Collier, would like to know how to get some.  Do you sell them thru retailers in California? 

— Thanks a lot,

I'm interested in purchasing a 5 Star Pad for my new gaited horse saddle but am not sure which pad would work best. I can email a picture of the saddle if you can provide an email address. I'm thinking either a custom pad or the barrel pad would work in the 3/4 thickness.

We have used 5 Star Pads for the past five years and really like them. I have the mule pad for my mule, and we also ordered the packer pad which has held up wonderfully. My husband is on his second 5 Star Pad - one for everyday and one for good.

—Thanks for your prompt reply.

Dear Mike and Laurel,

I am just sending you a quick note to let you know how much I love your 5 Star Pads. I have been using them on my colts and show horses for about 7 years now. I train cutting horses and just started into reining horses. Both disciplines require alot out of my horses, and I have never had a sore backed horse yet. I brought a few up for some clients of mine that are into western pleasure and roping, and they are as pleased as I am. In fact, I need to put in another order! Keep up the good work! My horses and I are depending on you.

God Bless
