In hunting, your horse is truly your partner for staying with hounds and keeping you out of the hospital- and while there aren’t any guarantees, I do all I can to ensure their comfort and well being ahead of my own. I don’t want to go down the ‘hot button for discussion’ path on shoes, but my own personal feeling is, conventional shoes (with borium and snow pads when warranted) do the best job of protecting my horses against all possible eventualities when going hard for 4+ hours on a hunting day, including galloping on paved roads, or rocky mountain trails, for example. When I was hunting back east 2-3 days a week, every horse got shoes save the old mare who packed the kids beginning when she was 26 years old. May be used in conjunction with the Eas圜are Therapy Click System.I’ve hunted one horse barefoot, in an area where I knew ‘most’ of the footing was soft sandy desert floor (but which meant ‘not’ going over the mountain on one run, I just won’t do that to a horse w/o shoes all around).For those with concerns, it’s easy to add a pour in packing in the toe area. The back of the foot is protected but still functions as a bare hoof, allowing the hoof to function better than in full shell products.
The product has won several 50-mile distance races. This product is the easiest of our glue-on boots and shoes to apply, and stays on the better than any glue-on product. The long-term effect of increased hoof flexion is a highly developed vascular system and a healthier hoof. The heel is afforded greater movement in all directions, which increases durability of the bond between the upper and the front portion of the hoof. The absence of an upper in the rear half of the shoe ensures that the heel and the entire back portion of the shoe are not connected to the hoof. The result is a hoof protection device that is more durable than composite shoes bonded along the entire sides of the hoof wall. Because of this lack of movement, the bonds between the shoe and the hoof hold much tighter and are less likely to fail than at the heel. This part of the hoof has the least amount of movement in both the vertical and horizontal planes. This new glue-on boot is a flip-flop design with a conventional upper that extends to the widest point of the hoof.
