Challenger is the most universal horseshoe in the Thoroughbred line-up. Not only does it have long, straight, thin side blades, allowing plenty of room to fine tune the grip for all possible turns, but it also has a ton of room at the rear of the shoe to grip dead center or to slide left or right. For those who flip with an off-center grip, Challenger is a great choice! The symmetrical double-sided cleats on the tips provide great counterweight for easy flipping and turning. Challenger is the ultimate backyard shoe and it reaches far beyond that, as it is commonly pitched in league and tournament play all over the country, especially in doubles and team competitions. Every Thoroughbred Horseshoe can take a serious beating… it’s part of the plan from the beginning, as we know our customers well! So, they should all last quite a while even with heavy pro-level usage… hence the two-year warranty. But if used only occasionally, a set of Thoroughbreds may last a lifetime. The option for the complete game set includes two official size cold rolled steel stakes, 1" x 30" and a guide booklet for playing horseshoes anywhere!
