The Team Pro is a nice saddle but can be a hard one (firm leather)
THERE ARE unorthodox methods of softening... (against what Brooks suggests)
Do a search for Brooks here and you will come up with some ideas.
A rider I bought an old 70's Brooks Pro from (it is ROCK hard... I might just look to sell/trade it for a B-15/17) says he used Redwing Boot oil (underneath) says it is better than Neatsfoot which can mush or degrade the saddle leather

give us a picture of the saddle!
