Pro-Pick Horseshoe Pick-up Hook by Thoroughbred, Made in USA

Description

By preventing average height horseshoe players (approx. 5'9") from having to bend all the way to the ground, or worse, kneel on the ground every time they pick up their horseshoes during play, the Pro-Pick Horseshoe Pick-up Hook is a necessity in league and tournament competitions when pitching hundreds of shoes over a period of hours. It saves the player from some back and joint pain. It’s 20-inch length is exactly what an average height player needs to keep from bending or stooping all the way down to the ground. Using the Pro-Pick, the average height player can now grab their shoes from a more upright position, saving time and reducing fatigue at the same time. If pitching in soft clay, it can easily pull up a stubborn horseshoe that’s dug in down deep in one tug. Taller players will also benefit, but may want to seek a longer length product for maximum performance. The Pro-Pick has a solid quarter-inch round stainless steel shaft that is embedded into the full length of its plastic/rubber handle using a quick set catalyzed acrylic resin. Its newly designed handle has a solid plastic core encased in a soft rubber ergonomic grip… a great improvement over the typical solid wood handle used on most pick-up hooks. It’s simple design is both efficient and effective, making it probably the best horseshoe pick-up hook on the market. It’s assembled in America by us here at Thoroughbred Horseshoes. Usage tip… Many players grab their horseshoes two at a time with their pick-up hooks but that puts unnecessary stress on the union between the handle and the shaft. You can greatly extend the life of your Pro-Pick by picking up your horseshoes one at a time and that’s what we recommend. Review: Great for a Bad Back - I love these hooks and use it all the time. I have a bad back and it helps alot. In the NHPA they all use them because they pitch in clay. In league..I was the only one that used them now a lot of guys ust them. Also, great for finding the shoes if they are burried in the sand. Review: Useful tool - As described, good quality. Shipping was slower than I liked.
