  Ah'm agin it.Get a very fast breakover,rear,via any and all of the other methods,but leave that toe rounded.If your horse "wrings" or turns the hoof at all,and doesn't naturaly breakover dead square straight off the front...somethings got to give,namely,the hocks.As Truman explained it to me,a square toe is corrective shoeing-and thus only for very young horses.
