I have a FF and a BMSS as well. I prefer the FF, but I'm primarily riding in the BMSS because we've just bought an ex-cutting QH who might duck out to the side suddenly at inconvenient moments! I feel more secure in the BMSS for that. But I love the FF for all the reasons you said, and also because there is more opportunity to shift your center of gravity appropriately for the terrain, rather than being settled in one spot. They're both great saddles in their own rights. May the Lord bless you as you continue your journey back to health and strength one step, and one ride, at a time. Thanks for sharing with us all.
