...I haven't dropped you a line
for sometime. I had some elbow trouble from last
August on, so I did not finish my year (at State
Tournament) well at all. When I
pitched with my arm flat to pitch the flip, I had a lot
of pain in m y elbow. So, I came home and started
to throw a 1 1/4 turn and found out I had no pain at
all. The only trouble is, I can only average about
47%, and that is not good in Class "A" when you carry a
64% average. One day, I saw an
article on Jesse Gonzales and his success with the flip
shoe. When I saw a picture of his back swing, I
saw a turn shoe position at the end of his back swing.
I showed it to my teacher and he saw what I say, so we
began with my DIFFERENT swing.
Start the swing down, as a turn
shoe, into the turn shoe back swing; come forward with a
natural, slow swing, and at the release point, release
it like a flip shoe. It is very easy to do with
Mr. D. Shoes, because of the toe being smooth without a
toe caulk, and with the good slant, it is easy to keep
the same grip all the way through. The extra,
extra heavy heels takes over into a very nice one flip,
with a soft shoe landing.
The two nice things about this is
I have been pitching a 78% average WITH NO ELBOW PAIN!
I would like you to send me a pair of the 2-lb, 10-oz
Mr. D's, without ringer breaker.

...we decided to buy the other
pair of MR. D. SHOES for our Oregon museum. Before going
to the museum with them, I let several people pitch them
on the grass so they could see what they're like. I even
pitched them a few times, as six years ago I started out
pitching a double flip, but now pitch a turn shoe.
They flipped so easily, I was amazed. I also liked the
gradual slanted back instead of a calk, for a smooth
release. The caulk was always in my way.

Your horseshoes are excellent! I have tried
many different brands,------, but since I have gotten use to the
smooth top with no calk for finger tip release, my ringer % has went
up by 20 %. I won my State Class Championship!

I enjoyed talking to you about your
new shoes. As mentioned, for me they are the best design I have come
across. With the way I grip my shoes, I do not want a calk on the
toe area. The balance is perfect, and even with a natural two flips,
my shoes will be ringers every time, providing I hit the pole!

Just for your information, I am an amateur
horseshoe pitcher, having only joined a league two weeks ago. At one
of the meetings, I had the pleasure of throwing some of your
shoes. Being new to the sport, I never dreamed that different
shoes could make a difference. For the three games I used your
shoes, my ringer percentage was double my usual average! I simply
had to get a pair of MD. D. SHOES after that experience (much
to the chagrin of my wife).
