PREMIER HORSESHOES: At first glance, this might look like a random group of horseshoe models with not much in common between them.  But the one thing they all have in common is innovation and that's what Thoroughbred is all about.  Each of these shoes were cutting edge horseshoes when they were first designed.  The Imperial with its unque at the time ringer break and sharp, hardened tips, the Six Shooter with its extra wide blades and huge hooks, the Big Foot modeled similar to the very unique M & M shoe and the Glory with its center balancing point concept were all very innovative ideas back in their day and we have preserved them all here in this premier series of horseshoes.
 

Imperial	Six Shooter	Big Foot	Glory
Details on each model: Imperial: Designed in the mid 1960's and available to the masses starting in 1968, the Imperial took the horseshoe world by storm.  Elmer Hohl pitched it in the world championships that year and set the all-time world tournament record for highest ringer percentage, averaging 88.2% ringers for 35 fifty point games against the toughest players of all time!  This shoe is time tested and is still pitched by many of today's champions.  Six Shooter: We've received more success stories on this particular shoe than any other shoe we've made, including many reports of dramatically improved ringer percentages!  The extra wide blades seem to provide just enough gripping area that the pitcher gains a bit more control over the direction of the shoe, resulting in more ringers.  Plus, the interior angles of the shoe help keep it on the stake as good or better than any other shoe out there.  With the Six Shooter, if you throw them on, they stay on!  Big Foot: You will stomp out your competition with the Big Foot!  This "five-sided" horseshoe is balanced perfectly for any turn and it flips pretty well too!  This is another one of those where if you throw it on, it stays put.  The angles on this shoe really make the difference.  It has a very sharp ringer break, stake grabbing hooks and weighted tips... the balance is really awesome on this shoe and its smooth, rounded edges really help you get a clean release and therefore more consistency in your direction.  Of course, the Big Foot is manufactured from the highest quality, most durable material on the market and is backed by our no hassle one year factory warranty... you break 'em, we'll buy you another pair... right now! Glory: This was the first shoe we ever made and it's one of our most established models.  It was designed and pitched by three time men's world champion, Dan Kuchcinski and has some very innovative features.  It's directing reversed-ringer break and sharp hooks are designed to hold the stake.  It has excellent dead center balance and features the popular narrow blade design similar to shoes like the Ted Allen, but at almost half the price!
