Pitching the nails is tricky to get the right grab. 2 ways to aim. 1. Hold a nail outside the shoe against the hoof. Try to match the angle it is lying when you aim your nail. 2. Place your index finger on the spot of the hoof where you want the nail to break out. Try to aim your nail where you think your finger nail is. If your nail is almost home and has not broken out, pull it and with a new nail bend the tip out a little which should make it break out quicker. A light tap drives deeper, a hard hit bends the tip more and can make it curve out through the wall.
Hey y'all, don't look at the nail head to determine which way to face the nail because sometimes (very rarely actually) the insignia on the nail head will be on there backwards. Better to just look at the bevel to determine which way to face the nail.
That one's going pasture for the next 6 months I take it because he cracks the outer wall in a soso place for no good reason. That is with the left front corner of the left front being a stopping point not a pushing point. And as a marriage is not fight that gives her a little reasons to damage that toenail

A farrier just told me to take a drill to my horses hoof so I'm just double checking that I know where to go.

Where can u get these shoes
search online - they are now sold through Riding Warehouse - I used to be the USA rep. They are excellent shoes.

If they have arthritis they can help :)
