I do it when it starts to become a problem, basically when it is not doing its job of keeping the horse cooler. I think I usually do 2 or 3 clips a year (depending on when I do the first one, how often I am riding, and how lazy I am). I don't do it any later than Feb since I tend to see the summer coat come in during March here in California.
