One from a few minutes ago. Looks like I fullered it with an axe and a rock. 13.5 inches of 3/8 x 3/4.[ATTACH]
He said natural! :eek: ...and I'm in for Saturday BTW. To the OP, Neatsfoot oil is natural and made for your purpose. Google it.
I am humbled and appreciative of your vote of confidence in me, however, in reality, I wouldn't make a scab off the rear end of a top hand, but I...
I did. Lf was a good 1/2" smaller than Rf and still a little high on the lateral side but landing much better now. Will also have to make adjustments...

This horse was standing straight, both feet on blocks, and the rad was shot straight on. Opposite leg has the same lateral deviation at the distal...
In effort not to derail the Duckett's Dot thread below, I am putting this up. For the first five years of my career I thought I knew exactly what...
No one has nor ever will master the hoof. Don't know about Duckett, but Jaye has and will make that admission freely. If you know it when you...
