Just reread your post and this reminds me of a couple of months ago when I got a new saddle for my TT bike and thought I had angles and everything right. I based the angles etc on how the previous saddle had been (make a note of how you have your saddle when you get it right again, it can be very useful).
I hadn't had a chance to do a mock time trial and went out and rode a 20km race time trial on it.
About 1/4 of the way in my right thigh started aching, by the 10km turn around I was in serious discomfort, and I crossed the finish line in tears, the pain was so bad (but being me, there was no way I was going to pull out of the TT - my fave discipline).
Old saddle back on - no worries.
So yes, tell you BF saddles do make a HUGE difference in comfort, fit and overall pain or lack of it.
