Re: [RC] Synthetic Shoes - Stephanie E Caldwell

I have two brands of shock absorbing shoes here. One is pure rubber over
steel, called Orlovs. The other is three initials, ATM (aluminum, Titanium,
Magniseum) with Luwex pads underneath. As of right now I've not tried any of
these and have "orthopedic" steel shoes on my horse due to a major crack.

I tried the ground control shoes and were not happy with them. My horse has
never lost a shoe until those. She didn't have thrush, but I felt like they
were cheaply made, poor traction, and all around disliked them.

Subject: [RC] Synthetic Shoes


Am considering going with a synthetic shoe for my mare
to help reduce concussion to her legs and joints.  Do
not feel steel shoes are the way to go at all and to
this point we have gone barefoot.
Want to know what your thoughts are regarding the
Equi-Flex and Ground Control horseshoes? Are there any
other brands out there?
TIA,
Val
