I use a physiologically balanced trim that encourages correct function, roughly based on Gene Ovnicek's trim method with any other good ideas /tweaks I come across.

Goodfellow Gwen   Province MO USA cgle4@netzero. net 417-683-4644 I prefer to study Gene Ovnicek's natural balance trim. I like the way that he maps out the foot from beginning to end, and trying to bring feet, not to a perfect shape, but the perfect shape or form for each individual hoof.

McCoy Cada or Ted   Summerville SC USA mtmccoy@ bellsouth.net 843-873-2560 Probably a combination of a bit of all. Learned from Martha Olivo, Jaime Jackson, KC LaPierre, Pete Ramey...and, of course, folks like Paige (who worked with Martha) and Walt (bfhc moderator.) We're learning to listen to what the individual hoof (on the individual horse) tells us using live sole plane as a guide...that is, until it isn't :-) Probably Pete is greatest influence now because of emphasis on importance of back of the foot support mechanism, booting, and the comfort of the horse first.

Drabek Eddie   El Campo      TX USA drabektx@ hotmail.com www.wholehorsetrim.com 979-533-1731c 979-578-8913h I am certified UH mentor but have been to clinics by Paul Chapman and Pete Ramey and find I sometimes use some of their techniques...so I'm really not a purist of any type trim...I do what works for each particular horse. :) I trim between 200-250 horses a month (many founder and navicular rehabs), part time (I'm also a police officer).
