Shoeing stocks
Posted by Johnnie Barnes at 2008-08-15 20:09:58
Hello Mr. Chris
My question is do you are do you know were I can get a detailed video on shoeing a draft horse in a shoeing stock. I mean a really detailed and proper way to secure each foot with clear and close shots of each foot forward and back front and hinds. I have been looking for some time now and there doesn't seem to be any body out there with a video on this subject. I will be very glad to buy a video from you if you would take the time to make a video for me like I said in detail on the proper way to use a shoeing stock.
Thanks
Johnnie Barnes

It has been many years since I used stocks, and the ones I had access to are no longer there. We have been using the Noavel Headstall for the past 5 years or so, and to be honest, it is so much better than stocks ever were. If you are wanting to see stocks in action, my best suggestion is to go to an Amish area and spend some time watching their farriers. The Amish make some good stocks, and I know some that shoe every horse in stocks. I would make a video for you if I could.

Thank You For your response, If you could put me in touch with someone that I could talk to about a video, or like you said that they only use stocks to shoe in I would be very grateful.
Thanks
