The Best Sands for your Horseshoe Pit

Horseshoe Pits can contain loose dirt, clay, or synthetic compositions, but sand is still the most common material used. At Jurassic Sands we pride ourselves on having the cleanest, purest, all-natural sands. Our sands have no dust or dyes and we never crush or pulverize rocks to create our sands. Our sands are found naturally in deserts around the United States and take eons to make from natural erosion. Because of this natural process our sands don't have nuisance dust, so when your shoe lands in the pit it won't be followed by a plume of dust. And our sands won't stick to your horseshoe or your hands.

We know how hard you worked making your horseshoe pit perfect, and the last thing you want to do is have your horseshoe pit lose its lure due to dusty, low quality sand. Our sands help you create a centerpiece for your back yard. We have three amazing sands that are perfect for any horseshoe pit.
