[RC] Old Dominion Foot Protection - shermanTitle: MessageI didn't look to see
when Old Dominion is, but if you haven't been conditioning in boots, I sure
wouldn't try them for a 50. I do use boots for 50s and 100, but it was not
easy figuring out the best way for me and my horse to keep the boots on. Gaiters
caused rub sores, so I foam on Easyboots. I foamed the boots on for a few long
(30 mile) conditioning rides before doing a 50 in them. I did a few 50s in them
before doing a 100. That way, there were no surprises on ride day. Since I've
been foaming boots on, I've never had one come off. I did have buckles break off
on a ride though, but the boots stayed on due to the Easyfoam.
Good
luck,
Kathy
