HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS

HAVING BEEN RIDING ON MY OWN FOR 25 YEARS AND NEVER TAKING ANY JUMPING LESSONS, I WAS THRILLED TO COME ACROSS THIS BOOK FROM ONE OF THE MASTERS. THE AUTHOR HAS MANAGED TO SIMPLIFY THE SEEMINGLY COMPLICATED WORLD OF DISTANCES, FORWARDNESS, BALANCE, ETC.. I TRIED SOME OF HIS CONCEPTS ON 2 OF MY OLDER HORSES AND A YOUNG THOROUGHBRED OFF THE TRACK. I WAS THRILLED WITH THE RESULTS IN ALL 3 OF THEM AND OF THE INCREASED CONFIDENCE I FELT ESPECIALLY SINCE I AM SUCH A TIMID RIDER. MY OLDER HORSES FELT MORE BALANCED AND MY YOUNGER ONE FELT LIKE A 'PRO' THE FIRST TIME WE EVER ATTEMPTED A SMALL JUMP TOGETHER. I WISH I HAD HAVE READ THIS BOOK MANY YEARS AGO WHEN THE 'FEAR FACTOR' WASN'T AN ISSUE. AS IN ALL EQUINE TRAINING BOOKS, I PICK AND CHOOSE WHAT INFORMATION WILL SUIT MY HORSES AND MY STYLE OF RIDING. I FOUND THIS BOOK HAD A LOT TO OFFER AND AM LOOKING FORWARD TO READING IT AGAIN.
