Interesting article about hoof balance.

I had put this on my other thread (http://www.horseandhound.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=577149) but possibly the word barefoot in the title put people off having a look.

It is about Duckett's dot and is well worth a read for everyone with horses shod or unshod as it's pretty interesting.

Can't read it right now, but have bookmarked it to read later. Looks like an interesting article.

I want to borrow my friend's shod horse, just to see if he's been balanced according to Duckett or Russell's theory.
