Showing for Beginners

Participating in a first horse show can be a daunting experience. From how to register to the mystery of what judges look for, there is so much to learn and - until now - no one book to go to for answers.

With Showing for Beginners, judge Hallie McEvoy acts as a friendly and highly informed guide for the beginning hunter seat rider. She explains the requirements and customs for both horse and rider, show-ring etiquette, showing lingo - all while debunking myths and offering sound advice on safety, finding the right trainer, and even buying a show horse. And most important, she stresses the value of relaxing and having fun.
