To cut or not to cut, what is your opinion?

I keep my mare clipped year round. She has pretty much no whiskers on her face, almost no inner ear hair, very little nose hair, bridle path clipped, mane only 2 inches long, jaw lined clipped, legs clipped short enough to apply baby powder, and face white clipped. She is stalled 24/7/365 except for when I ride and turn her out for about 3 hours. I do put a fly mask on her 24/7 to keep her eyes and ears from getting fly bites and full of dust. I leave enough hair in the ears to keep the gnat bites away but not enough to be seen. If I did not show her all year round I would not keep her clipped. However, if you are going to a show to show in a cl like showmanship you should always clip everything. It is disrespectful to the judge, the show, and the tradition of showing to do otherwise IMO. Hair will always grow back and it is never a permanent clip.
