It's your last chance to win the coveted buckle from the Calgary Stampede Forging contest. For the past 11 years, farriers have been asked to forge horseshoes of all types. And once, even a pair of tongs! The entries were mailed into Calgary Stampede and judged by the best farriers in the world.
Test your skills on a sidebone horseshoe. Delta Mustad Hoofcare Center is proudly sponsoring the Calgary Mail-In Stampede Forging contest. The winner will receive a belt buckle and all contestants will receive a t-shirt and a Farriers Classic book. Plus, if one of our local farriers wins the contest, we will give them a $100 gift certificate to Farriers Depot.
Stop by today and pick up enough FREE bar stock to forge one shoe, courtesy of Farriers Depot. Bring your finished Sidebone horseshoe and completed entry form back to us by May15, 2014, and we will ship it for you to Calgary.
