Martin Gates Farrier Services

Pulling clips on a draught shoe. Hand forged clips flatten if the shoe becomes twisted and is stepped on. Factory clips do not. These shoes are for Winnie, a Percheron hunt horse.

Martin made William four custom handmade shoes and installed them today Then they took them for a test drive!

Martin making hoof picks out of old shoes. He is also drawing clips on homemade shoes for a client this weekend.

A foundered horse who is not easy to work on. He would never hold still long enough to cast but these backwards shoes have worked!

Martins hand made shoes for "Seven." Seven lucky hand punched holes! Winter forging fun! #mytalentedhusband
