This really is a great set of horseshoes for the casual pitcher.They have a really good quality of workmanship and a good feel and balance to them.The manufacture really put a terrific paint job on the horseshoes. The only thing you may want to change to the set would be to get longer stakes.The stakes that come with the set is a little to short,but if they included longer stakes,the price would be higher I'm sure.The price of this set of horseshoes was the best around for the quality of horseshoes,I checked.Shipping was pretty quick too.
