Can anyone tell me If these full support pads are easy to apply? Do I need to drill the nail holes? If so. What size drill bit should be used? Just curious! Any Info would help!

Easy to use and no you do not need to drill holes. I use them often. Fill in the foot to the pad with Equipak. You want to put duct tape on the back of the foot to prevent it from squirting out and fill in under the back of the pad real good on each side of the frog. If you have any questions contact me.

Since I drill all my pads, I'd say "yes" to drilling these pads too. I use a 1/8" drill bit. Driving nails through pads can sometimes be tricky and I prefer to take the guess work out of the equation.

I also drill all pads with a 1/8" bit, and if I want flexibility in the artificial frog then I don't fill in with any material, especially if I suspect an abscess might follow. The vets in my area really like this pad.
