    [RC] Old Mac's or Easy Boots - sindy mccosker



    I need some opinions...


    I have a 16 years old mare that has been shod continually since she was 3 years old. This summer I decided to pull her shoes off and let her go barefoot until I had the time to really ride her again.

    I now have more time and want to take her out and try out some of the trails around our new home. I don't know if I am going to reshoe her, her hooves look so great now, but she needs some sort of front hoof protection on the trail.

    Has anyone used Old Mac's? How do they compare to Easy Boots? Do they stay on in all terrains? How do horses travel in them? They look a bit "clunky". Are they easier to put on and take off? They look to be easier than Easy Boots. I don't see the need to use a screwdriver to pull them off. I need EASY! 8^)

    Any information would be greatly appreciated.
