Thank you to Montana Farrier Supply for helping make the Bodie Trnka clinic possible by sponsoring some supplies! Bring your stations if you want to get hands on with our clinician!

The clinic will start at 9:00 a.m. on both Friday and Saturday. Can't wait to see you there! Tell your friends and drag them along with you. This one will be well worth the time and money.

Just two more weeks! You won't want to miss this clinic. Whether you're just starting your career or you're a seasoned farrier with 30 years under your belt, there is going to be plenty to take away from what Bodie has in store. Don't forget to send us a message on here if you plan to attend! If you are traveling and need a place to stay the night, there are some great hotels down the road in Red Lodge.

Does working with other farriers help your business? Does blasphemy towards other farriers boost business?
