Hit 100 horses in a month for the first time last week
Been shoeing for about 4 years now and last month I finally hit 100 horses in a single month. That's a lot of bending over and hammering. My back is definitely feeling it but it felt good to see that number pop up on my schedule. Anyone else track their monthly numbers like that?

My buddy Mike hit 110 horses last month and I swear his back brace has become a permanent part of his wardrobe now. He keeps telling me to start tracking my numbers too but I'm scared to see how much I'm actually doing.

110 horses in a month is like 3-4 a day, right? I mean, my dad's a farrier and he's been doing this for 30 years without ever tracking a single horse or wearing a brace. Maybe Mike's form is just off or he's lifting wrong. Idk, seems like a lot of fuss for something that's basically just manual labor.
