Wouldn't they still get the ping if the thread is locked?

But I'll go ahead and repost since you asked:)

Cool picture Frog:)

Well the farrier has been here. I must say he did a great job as far as how it looks this time. The nails were all even. He took his time, almost an hour, he put a trailer on Harley to help with the over reaching. Pictures below. When he was all done, he said "I don't know what happened, I must have not be paying attention, but he was pretty out of balance on his rear. It will take me a few times to get him right, but he's better now". I'm giving him the day off and will ride him tomorrow to see how well the shoeing job functions.

I really respect someone who admits when they have screwed up. Made me feel alot better about keeping him as my farrier.I can forgive a mistake if it's admitted too.

Here's a picture of the pad after he took it off.

Yeah - we'll get the ping, but this is better than having to flip back and forth :~D

Boy - he really wore out that pad. Bay usually doesn't wear holes in his in 8 weeks. And that's when we were riding a lot (relatively, for us) of trail. It's your rocks! and all the riding you do also. Makes a big difference!

I'm glad he got the shoe job back on track this time, and that you don't have to scramble for a new farrier.

Definately looks like a nice job this time. It's good that the guy 'fessed up. Everybody has a crappy day every once in a while.
