RE: [RC] [RC]snowballs - Juli Jakub

I actually live in The Adirondacks of New York, my horses have the same problem and they are barefoot. They get huge ice/snow balls! It is frustrating, but I don't work them much during the winter...just lots of groundwork so it is alright. But if I want to ride alot I would probably have to do shoes/borium/rim pads. I heard Pam sprayed in the hooves can help?? Anyone know if this is true?

Not knocking your experience, but is your snow maybe different than mine out in South Dakota? My horses are barefoot and they can acquire 3" ice balls overnight that a hammer may or may not completely remove - "popping" them out is out of the question. I'm happy if I can break them off level.
