Ted T Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Ouch! I had a big old race horse kick me just about like that when I was 12 yrs old. He hit me above the knee and just below the hip on the right leg (quads). It was quite a serious injury although it did not break my leg. You might say it left quite an impression on my mind also. That is why I never, never considered becoming a Farrier. Be safe! Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
son_of_bluegrass Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Having done a little farrier work (enough to know my knees dislike it enough that the money ain't worth it), I can tell you he was standing exactly where a horse instinctivly kicks when attacked from behind. If he had stood beside the ribcage it likely would have worked. ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blacksmith Jim Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Yea, when I watched I kinda thought the guy was a moron, he stood in the exact position for receiving a kick. Poor sap. Also, I was reminded that with cattle, don't they pinch them in a pen to hold them for a brand or tag? I thought it was odd that the horse was just standing in a stall to receive a brand..
