Is Pros Choice the same as Professional's Choice? I have been looking at
their boots too. Both Action and Professional's Choice are OK for the
tendon's protection, but sand that gets in between the boot and the
horse's skin caused on both my horses red, scrapped skin. Even the
covers I bought to put over the boots can't guarantee no sand is getting
in. One day only little gets in, sometimes much. It differs from the horse's
movements that day. I have tried several ways to put them on,
tight/loose/certain velcro straps tighter/looser than others. It differs by
the day how much sand gets in. In was wondering whether it would be
of any effect to put on some kind of stockings before putting on the
boots.
Any one have any experience with that?

<<Desiree; I have often wondered why endurance people didn't use
some kind of wrap to help support the suspensory and deep digital
flexor. I use (and sell) a clinically studied leg wrap from Pros Choice. It
has been shown to reduce the impact of the horses hoof hitting the
ground by nearly 25%. Let me know if you want more info.
