That first long session can be tough on your hands; a 10 oz driving hammer is easier to control than a heavier head. A more manageable swing, especially as you build your technique.

At Anvil Brand, we recommend choosing a hammer you can control comfortably. What weight do you prefer for a full day of shoeing?

If your horse is still uncomfortable, the correct horseshoe for navicular may need a careful adjustment.

Change one variable at a time, then reassess during the shoeing cycle. That makes it easier to tell what helped. What would you track first: comfort, hoof angle, or movement?
