American Farriers Journal - A Amerian Local Magazine

 You know what’s funny? People outside the farrier world rarely think about hooves until there’s a problem. But open an issue of American Farriers Journal Magazine, and suddenly you realize — this isn’t just about trimming and shoeing. It’s about craftsmanship, science, and even a little bit of art. That’s the main highlight for me: the magazine doesn’t treat farriery like a chore, it treats it like a profession worth celebrating.

The best parts? I’d say the case studies. There’s something oddly fascinating about reading how one farrier solved a tricky hoof issue that most of us would walk right past without noticing. Add in the tool reviews, the interviews with seasoned pros, and those sharp, close-up photos — it’s the kind of detail that makes you stop mid-page and think, “Oh, I could use that tip tomorrow.”

Why’s it worth reading? Because it never feels like fluff. It’s hands-on, it’s grounded, and it reminds you that this trade is alive and evolving. Honestly, every issue feels less like a magazine and more like a community bulletin board — one that happens to make you better at what you do.
