Oh hell yeah i've tried prepping double tough horses with SMEAC but it tends to get hairy fast and i just end up hanging for the paycheck and trying to survive.http://www.leatherneck.com/forums/images/icons/icon11.gif These days i may quit those bad accounts mid-job guilt free, because if they are so dangerous that i can't get around the animal then the owner has lied to me and literally set me up for a fall.http://www.leatherneck.com/forums/images/icons/icon8.gif And its cheaper and more practical for a farrier to load up and drive off sound, rather than hire an ambulance.

Also tried using that five paragrapher gathering cows and lost horses on a couple big outfits but the work was so dynamic and fluid ever changing that the order gets blown out.

KOCOA seemed like a good idea when knocking around the mountains with map and compass but it has yet to fully pertain on my day hikes...

Back at farrier college the professor asked the class to come up with a simple acronym on how to approach a job, a pre-trim/shoeing inspection. He said there would be a prize for the winner. i came up with START and it was approved to the point he was excited about submitting it in the form of an article to the American Farriers Journal. Well it never happened and no prize but i had not been away from the Corps very long and was used to taking "promises" with a grain of salt:marine:
