Warning: my old mentor told me to never use a 4-point rasp on a draft horse
I thought he was just being stubborn, but after a Clydesdale in Lancaster pulled a shoe and I tried it, I shredded the hoof wall in under 3 minutes. What's the best rasp you've found for the big guys?

Honestly sounds like a skill issue more than a tool problem. A sharp four point can work fine on any horse if you know how to use it. You must have been bearing down way too hard or using a totally dull rasp. Those big feet have a ton of wall, no way you wreck it that fast with a light touch. Maybe your old mentor was right about technique, not the tool itself.
