Hi gowfermike, I'm 56 too and recently swapped to a Selle SMP Strike Plus saddle after prostate surgery. For me, it made the difference between riding and not riding, though my problem was more in the area of the epididymus (the tube descending into the scrotum). The saddle has a huge cutout down the centre and its drop nose design means the cutout doesn't end just where you need it most. I've been thinking about adding a Thudbuster too but since switching to the Selle SMP haven't really needed to. The saddle is expensive but it's been worth every penny for me.

By the way, I believe Selle SMP make a touring saddle called the Martin Tourer but it's synthetic, not leather. Don't know much about it.
