Just read a thread where the OP said their horse has just been clipped..... Nothing against this but....
I do not normally clip until the end of September sometimes half way through November This is because I have a TB who does get woolly but I like to let a winter coat come through first and he does take a while.... I know no two horses are the same so:
Is there any hard and fast rule to clipping or is it as an when you feel its time. I was always told by my dad that traditionally you dont clip after New Years day ( I presume so as not to hinder the summer coat) but is this an old wives tale too???
