>> The other thing that bugs me - the idea that a barefoot trim and a pasture trim are two different things. A good, balanced trim is a good, balanced trim. Period.
mic...i am not a trimmer nor do i trim my own ponies. but there is a difference between the two trims. in the past...my FARRIER would trim my ponies in the winter and take off a ton of sole/live tissue. and would not put a mustange roll on the hoof edges. my natural barefoot TRIMMER..does trim my ponies different. scott does not take any live sole off and he rolles the hoof edges, so that they do not chip. sorry i can't explain it better. raven
