Cavallo Horse & Rider: Boot Horses for Safer Winter Rides with Added Studs for Traction

Denver, CO, January 27, 2022 --(PR.com)-- Ice and snow pack into horses hooves and make winter a slick time to ride. However, winter doesn’t have to mean a stop to horse riding or driving time if horses wear Cavallo Hoof Boots (https://www.cavallo-inc.com) with extra traction. The Cavallo Stud Application Kit allows riders to place slip-stopping studs in the Cavallo Hoof Boots the horse already wears.

The studs offer extra traction for riding horses as well as for minis, ponies, horses. and draft horses who drive. Opt to use the studed boots on ice and snow, or while riding on slick grass. The studs fit in all Cavallo Hoof Boot sizes and styles and once removed, the boot soles are not compromised. The holes give additional flow-through for water in the warmer months.

If a horse wears metal shoes, fit him with boots and studs to wear over his slip-inducing forge work. Read more about wearing boots over metal shoes here: https://www.cavallo-inc.com/safe-winter-riding.

Installation Guide
“I’ll show you how simple it is to attach the Cavallo studs into the Cavallo Hoof Boots,” says Cavallo CEO Greg Giles. “They fit in our regular sole and the slim sole boots and can help your horse have more traction when riding over wintry, icy terrain.”

First, make a starter hole in the tread with a 3/16” bit. Then take out that bit and put in the custom tool that comes with the Cavallo Stud Kit.

Pick up the Cavallo Stud and place it over the tool. Line the Stud up with your prepared hole then slowly screw the stud in with your cordlessdrill.

Make sure that the stud doesn’t extend past the sole on the inside of the boot. Older boots with worn soles may be more difficult to drill than new pairs. Watch the full installation how-to video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OTRcflt-zo.

Choose to put in as many studs as needed depending on the traction desired. The Cavallo Hoof Boot Stud Application Kit comes with 12 studs and the application tool.

Riding Only
Don’t turn out horses with studded hoof boots in place to avoid injuries to your horse or pasture mates. Horses move differently when frolicking in the herd. When riding with your winter-ready boots, keep in mind that some surfaces may be too hard and thick for studs to help. Use judgment when riding in slippery locations. The studs and Cavallo Hoof boots provide extra traction, but they do have their limits.
