    Did one yesterday; just turn 4 yrs old, TB that has been grabbing both front lateral heels, "Whacking" RH ankle/fetlock due to LH compensation; stepping under. RH stifle is the culprit, seen "falling out" on the lunge on either lead. Looking to be sold ASAP..... so, as presented both medial branches of the hinds were high or long, typical.
    Did some "down and dirty" lateral toe extensions and a rolled medial braches and crossfired medial toes of the shoes. A half round, half swedge would have done the trick but that particular shoe doesn't have enough metal for that big baby......

    Had to gain some length to the lateral branches, so I thumb printed :

    I thought I'd post in this section so not to clog the contest thread. Dave that shoe is simply perfection! The other two entries are fantastic also.

    I only use a few kerk classic roller side clips so I was wondering if I could enter using modified concave shoes or is it exclusive to kerks? Not that I can match anything already entered but I would like to throw my hat in as well

    Cheers
