I enjoy your channel immensely, I look forward to it and all because you talk to your viewers as if we were looking over your shoulder. Those channels that have loud music blaring or the individual tries to come off all knowing, that’s not you, and their hollow. Thank you for sharing your time and knowledge, especially for someone such as myself that doesn’t know crap from crisco on this blacksmith and horseshoeing subjects power on and keeping instructing.

I can't say why because I don't know, but "skosh" cracks me up. My first time seeing anyone work on the anvil like in here. I dig that, too. I was thinking of something as I listened but couldn't watch the beginning, but it was when you were evaluating the hooves' conditions and heard you say how there was something different in 2 of the hooves which made me think, as long as they're side to side or in front, then the horse is probably leaning one way over the either. And I've seen farriers use dental treatment, playdough, some black goo from a tube that's kind of squirted and shoved into the space between the shoe the and the frog. And so while I don't know half what you do I'm like armchair quarterback after the game was played, I might be into something useful. But I'm thinking if any horse stands learning to one side or even carrying their weight on their hind legs over their forward. You might balance the lean by adding supper on the side learned on, whenever you go to shoe them. I hope I portrayed what I meant to. I can't see the small screen letters very well so I might be missing corrections I didn't make but were made when my eyes were on the letters. But keep up the great work. You definitely know your stuff.

There are so many things i really like - not butchering the frog 👍, the wide of the frog, not rasping the hoof wall off as only going the 1st 3/1 up. That it actually has heels. But I don't get why you don't take out the dead sole, that has not exfoliatet it self to find the true sole depth. And to me it looks like it's broken forward on both hinds = to high?.( as in, possible fork* tendon damage down the road). I would be curious to see x-ray. Last, in my book - never (hind) side clips on front. My horse has none, as there is no point in locking the hoof movement/growth. Thanks for letting us see your work. Warm blood- eventing And

As I recall Craig Trinka pushed pretty hard towards licensing as president of the AFA about 15+~ years ago. I know that was when I stopped paying dues and I suspect a bunch of others did as well. I’ve stood for testing and can certainly respect the qualifier of “CJF” but the licensing debate is a huge preventative to me ever deal with the AFA again. It’s to bad really

When I’m burning shoes on I’m essentially checking to make sure the shoe fits. But there’s also some bacterial benefits by burning a shoe on as well. It’s hard to say about an age to get into being a farrier. Typically the hardest thing to get used to is the extensive physical labor required to do the job. I’ve seen guys succeed getting in at that age but I’ve also seen guys fail too. Hard to give a definitive answer.

Can’t stand this! Did u actually pull the horses shoe off before lifting the clenches?? Woow a good farrier will not do what your doing ripping nails out of horses feet!!
@USAfarrier-pnwfarriershow Жыл бұрын
You do realize that when nails are clinched properly, the clinches pop when you pull the shoe off and do not cause hoofwall to rip/break off. You sound like you’ve watched a lot of videos of people using a clinch cutter but what you’ve failed to notice is those nails in their videos have raised clinches and if you don’t cut them, they will tear hoofwall off with them. There’s a time and place where it is necessary, yes. But in this case with this horse, I did not have to cut the clinches.
