USEA Podcast #280: Top Tip from Top Grooms #2
We're back this week on the USEA Official Podcast with another episode of "Top Tips from Top Grooms!" Nicole is joined by eventing groom extraordinaires Alex Van Tuyll, Emma Ford, and USEA President Max Corcoran to share some more expert tips on horse grooming and horse care.
- Tips for grooming sensitive-skinned horses like Thoroughbreds?
- How do you treat horses with perpetually terrible skin that already have an A+ diet?
- Do you ever use a fake tail? If so, how often?
- How do you do perfect braids with a thick mane and using rubber bands instead of sewing?
- On the flip side, how can you help your horse's mane grow back after the winter rubbing season?
- Top tips for studs?
- How do you keep your gray horse clean and sparkling?
- Favorite tips for impressive quarter marks?
- Handy hints for grooming at a five-star? Any differences from grooming at a four-star?
- Stable wrapping/bandaging - how not to mess it up?
- To wrap up the episode, Nicole asks Corcoran, Ford, and Van Tuyll to each share their "pet hate" and their must-have tool or product.
