I am going to be working in the Broken Bow Nebraska area a few days every 6 weeks.
I don’t like to travel with a Helper, but could use some help on this run.
Pay depending on experience, you will need stripping and Finishing tools.
I like a nice finish so you will need a half round and a Finish rasp.

Is there anyone shoeing in Norway, I have some old Military buddies I would like to see, and if I am going I would prefer to work with someone during the day.

We have page after page of front feet. I am growing increasingly curious about hind feet. How about we display here some of the various ways of shoeing hind feet and explanation for why. Personally, I don’t like shoeing fronts without hinds, but that’s just me.
I have heard several times on here that, “the key to shoeing performance horses is in setting up the hind feet”
Show us what ya got?
