[RC] Hoof Size - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Debra seaweedcowgirl@xxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

Can any of you tell me if a big foot/shoe size translates to a rougher ride? I 
am not into endurance, thus speed is not important to me, but do very long 
distance rides. I'm a tall woman and prefer some height from my mount. I am 
considering the purchase of a 16.2H Frisian/Morgan X. I'm not thrilled about 
the xtra height (normally like to ride something about 15 1/2H)and am concerned 
about the size of foot and weight 1400 lbs.
Do those of you who do non-compitive, distance riding/camping have an opinion 
on this? I just figure nimble little goat feet hug the trail, so would a big 
foot feel like T-Rex?

If you can, please respond to seaweedcowgirl@xxxxxxxxxxx
thanks
