[RC] Ground Control Shoes - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Sheila Larsen Sheila_Larsen@xxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== I was wondering when Maggie was going to pipe up. She gave me great advice when I was trying them. They worked great on my gelding and ok on my mare. My mare doesn't land perfectly flat so the wear was uneven. However, I tried them again recently with a different (better) farrier and they wore off center on the toe but then seemed to stop wearing after a while., kinda like your own sneakers. Using washers under the nail head helps keep the shoe stabilized. (Suggestion from Maggie-thank you) Ok I am now trying easy walkers, and the "jury is still out" on those. I also thought-what does the toe have anything to do with ground control, sounds like the farrier is confusing "natural trim" with plastic shoes. Of course a natural trim shouldn't cause problems either. P.S. Can someone tell me why my (and others) post go in a long string across the screen.
