Re: [RC] [RC] [RC] [RC] [RC] Renegade Hoof Boots? - Laney Humphrey

Raven, depending on how much riding you plan to do, either the Old Mac G2 or Boas might work well for you. Boy, I sure sound like an easycare rep. John, I'm not!!! Either of those is much easier to put on. I know the company doesn't recommend either for endurance, but what the heck, it wouldn't hurt to try if the boots are what your hands can deal with.
BTW, I only use vet wrap at rides. Karen Chaton has found that she doesn't even need to use it at rides. The shape of the horse's hoof and pastern, the way the horse travels and how well adjusted the boot is all enter into how important the vet wrap protection is.

only used my Bares twice. They are a pain to put on, but I'm getting
better at it. The Epics were a pain to put on for awhile, too, but I
can put  two boots on in about 10 minutes now

Wow..this scares me.  My right hand is a bit disabled. It was
completely rebuilt in 1995 and it's weak. Now, I'm concerned that I
may not have the strength to do boots. ~:[

Whoever told me to use a mallet was a genius! ;-)

Okay...got one in the trailer


can wrap a foot in vet wrap quicker than I could at first, too

so...you need to vet wrap before using Easy Care boots? oh lordy, what the heck have i gotten myself into.

Too bad Easycare doesn't have a boot trial program like for saddles

yes...or a rental program! raven <;]
