Studs - advise needed

[Kayfm]

Just preparing my boy to start competing x country for the winter. I want to use studs however is it best to use them on front or both front and back. Havent used studs since showjumping as kid and just cant remember lol. Any advise ?

I have always used them on front and back, occasionally two in each foot. It all depends on what you feel your horse will be safe with for the type of ground. They are obviously there for grip and safety so the horse doesn't slip over, especially going down hill and cornering do what you feel is best and safest!
