What began with riding, steer wrestling, and training horses grew into a lifelong farrier career. His expertise took him to Iowa State University, where he helped establish its first public farrier school. Today heโ€™s a clinician who travels the country sharing his knowledge, grateful for the trade and committed to giving back to peers and students. He also developed the Maverick horseshoe line and the Rodeo hind horseshoe for Werkman Hoofcare USA, blending innovation and experience to support the next generation of farriers and equine athletes." } ] } ] ```
