Extra Large Horseshoe

[mick56]

Picked this up at a rummage sale Saturday. Biggest horseshoe I ever saw. Are there horses that could use this big of a shoe?

Draft horses like Clydesdales and Percherons...

WE called them work horses, or team horses and they had very large hooves.

Looks like your shoe was made for the early ABS (Automatic Breaking System).

I didn't know horses were equipped with brakes?

This is a modern machine-made horseshoe, probably within the last 20 years.
Probably came off one of these babies.
