Old avalanche worker trick: heat the saddle up just a bit in the oven and then apply the sno-seal/treatment of your choice. It will open up the pores in the leather, and then it will absorb right in. (I've been doing this forever with Kinco gloves and Sno-seal). The heat let's you skip the awkward sticky/greasy stage.
