I think sticky soil might make it easier to absorb shock better, but its a lot harder for a horse to move in sticky soil, like it is when you walk down the beach where the sand is all dry. Plus, The frog of a horses foot (the triangular soft part on the bottom of a horses foot) does a pretty good job of keeping shock at a minimum.
What else can I help you with?
Would sticky soil packets under the horse's hooves enable it to absorb shocks better?
The soil that sticks on the bottom of horses hooves would do nothing to help absorb shocks. If the horse is wearing shoes it may provide some pressure on the sole to help distribute the weight between the sole and the hoof wall supported by the shoe.
Does sticky soil form packets under the horse's hooves and help it to absorb shocks better?
Sticky soil, small particles of bedding, and manure all get caught inside the horse's hooves. These do not absorb shocks; if the horse is ridden hard with its hooves in this condition it will probably slip and stumble constantly from the pressure inside its hooves and the modification of their balance. Clods, as they are known, as well as stones, should be picked out frequently to stop them building up.

Does sticky soil which forms in packets under the horse's hooves enable it to absorb shocks better?
no a cleaned out hoof will allow the horse to be more comfortable because there will be better flexion and traction, also even a small rock can make your horse go lame. also that dirt and soil or whatever is in there because it can cause thrush which is pretty much the rotting of the hoof. it smells really bad. you use a hoof pick to keep out the dirt or any rocks, and ice too
Sticky soil which forms packets under the horse's hooves enable it to absorb shocks better?
Mud has been used for a long time to reduce heat in hooves because they can't expand or dissipate the heat except through the sole, as in a racehorse after a race when he's done-up in the evening. Sticky soil may help w/shock absorption, but remember that a horse's hooves need to be kept clean and dry to avoid thrush. So if you employ this practice, whether it works or not, just be sure to clean the hooves thoroughly after you use the horse.
