Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Conrad Trow- Living The American Dream
Q: What made you want to jump from South Africa to America for horseshoeing school?
I always loved the idea of seeing America, and I thought horseshoeing in Kentucky, the horse capital of the world, would be a great opportunity.
Shorty Gorham- PBR Hall of Fame Bullfighter
Q: What did it feel like to get inducted into the Hall of Fame?
It was an honor, but I never in my life thought about it.
Shorty Gorham- PBR Hall of Fame Bullfighter
Q: Can you fully teach somebody to read an animal? Or do you think it's something that somebody's got in them?
There may be some people I think that it comes easier for, but I really think you just have to put the time in and be around animals for it to really become second nature.
Culture Exchange Student Ed Beeston and Q&A with Troy Wood
Q: If you could list five fundamentals of shoeing, what would they be?
Perimeter fit, trimming to frog plane, ensuring nails are in the white line, maintaining a flat shoe, and making sure the shoe fits the job.
Culture Exchange Student Ed Beeston and Q&A with Troy Wood
Q: What do you do when hooves are hooked hard or have a lot of flare? When does the shape get better?
Work on fitting them properly, perhaps by consulting with someone more experienced to refine the trimming technique.
