We compete in 50's with them. Just take them off at the lunch stop and check them and clean them. They do well in everything but sand.

Ooooh that is a loaded question :^). If my horses lived in pasture year around, they could probably stay barefoot, but since they don't, it's easier to keep shoes on them than it is to fight their unnatural living conditions at home. Chief could probably pull off going barefoot and competing to a certain degree. My older horses couldn't, as we have tried and one will grow pancakes and the other would probably end up with an injury from the club foot/low heel issues he has. I don't need to go so far as to make my horse lame trying to prove that he can go barefoot when I am competing on them so much, I have seen too many hurt horses over the years from people who have tried it and failed and don't compete as much as I do, and I do a lot of rides that are really really rocky. Gawd I hope this doesn't start people arguing over barefeet!!!!!!
