Course overview
This clinic will educate and familiarize the attendees with how to gain all the benefits of a barefoot hoof while still achieving the protection, installation ease, and low cost of traditional nail-on steel horseshoes. The importance of providing the horse with as much natural hoof mechanism flexibility as possible will be accomplished through highlighting five critical factors driving healthy hooves (Hoof Mechanism, Blood Circulation, Hoof Growth/Quality/Shape, Shock Absorption, and Biomechanics). Attendees will gain firsthand knowledge of real-world split-shoe usage through a live-horse demonstration. The practical, interactive demonstration will cover recommended hoof mapping, trimming, shoe fitting, nailing, and final splitting techniques.
