A trainer in Lexington pointed out my hoof angle was off by 5 degrees

I was trimming a quarter horse last month and thought the foot looked fine. The trainer said, 'That heel is too low, you're setting him up for a stumble.' I measured it and he was right. Now I use my protractor on every trim before I pick up the rasp. Anyone else get called out on something basic they missed?

Protractors save a lot of pride.
