I have had periodic problems with chafing, not saddle sores. I tried Chamois Butt'r before, but to no avail. However, when I went to training camp, after a particularly bad week of chafing, my coach told me to try it again. After I told him, I tried it before he asked me how much I had used. I told him that I rubbed it in like lotion and he laughed...

I really slathered it on, and WOW. It made a huge difference.

So now that I learned how much you need to apply, I love the stuff. I figure this could help someone in my position, as there are not too many people that really tell you how much to put on. Anyway, just thought I would share.
