As I like to try new things I bought the "Riders Rasp" I usually buy a bog standard one but my tack store no longer stocks, so-
I opted for the wooden one in favour of the more expensive radius rasp. This is due to the photo that's being shown of a hoof that's had the bars and frog cut off. Not sure on the trim but we are not doing that trim. Not sure what the horse is meant to actually walk on, it has no frog!
I didn't go for the Horsemans Trail it looked too restrictive for me.
If anyone has any of these, join in, good, bad or ugly.
I thought after trying that the reason a farrier uses a rasp, is because it works! I know that's obvious but the RR is designed for in between the farrier.
Photos first, then the pro, con and out of 10
