Final Approach With Chris Gregory

Dan Harman is an English farrier who was my main contact when coming over to speak to the Farrier Focus event at Stoneleigh in 2023. He is one of the officers of the BFBA and runs a very successful farrier practice in the UK. Dan and I have a lot in common from farriery to guitar playing. We had a great chat and you're going to enjoy getting to know Dan as we sat down in a back room at the BFBA Focus.

We are cleared for takeoff.

Don Davis is an Army veteran, former Calvary soldier, and current stablemaster for the horse detachment of the 1st Calvary in Fort Cavazos, better known as Fort Hood, Texas. He and I were introduced by my great friend Scott Robison while I was down there doing a clinic for Camp Cowboy. That introduction led to my having the honor of helping the last farrier soldiers in the U.S. Army. Don has a great story to tell and you're going to have a good time learning about the man that runs the last horse detachment in the U. S. Army that uses soldiers to keep the horses shod.

We are cleared for takeoff.

Dr. Tucker Joustra has been a doctor in South Missouri for almost four decades, but more than that, he is a healer who embraces whatever works. Even if the establishment does not support or agree with it, Dr. Joustra is going to do whatever is right for his patients. This became undeniably evident during the pandemic, when he and his team saved so many patients by doing what worked.

Even though he has been my physician for 30 years I didn't get to know him on a personal level until lately. He and I got to spend some time boring some holes in the sky and I knew you'd enjoy getting in our conversation.

Mike Randles is a well-known English farrier who I've known for many years. Mike and I were both watching our sons compete at the World Champion Blacksmith's competition at Spruce Meadows in Calgary in 2023, and I talked him into sitting down with me and telling me his story. Mike had produced the incredible forged anatomical leg model trophy that was presented at the World Championships this year, and it was just a beautiful sight to behold. He has a lot to say and you're going to like this interview.

I met Jeff several years ago when he attended his first-ever Farrier Clinic at Centaur Forge in Burlington, Wisconsin. I was a clinician, and he was a new hire for the American Farriers Journal. We hit it off, and it has been a pleasure to follow his career and see Jeff at Farrier events around the country.

Jeff has taken on a new role as the main man at the American Farriers Journal, and he was in the heartland for a few days on assignment. I convinced him to sit down with me and tell his story. You're going to enjoy getting to know the man behind the magazine.

We are cleared for takeoff.
