Winning Techniques for Serious Riders You'll find
truckloads of riding advice in the horse world, but few come from a source as
qualified as William Steinkraus. He rode in five Olympics and won four medals,
rode on 39 winning Nations Cup teams, and won over 100 individual international
competitions.
Reflections on Riding and Jumping is Steinkraus' no-nonsense,
easy-to-read guide on what it really takes to be a winner. In it, you'll find
his thoughts on everything from holding the reins and using aids to choosing
horses and bits. He offers his opinion on what judges might consider acceptable
but you still shouldn't do and his simple strategy for course walking. Other
chapters deal specifically with problem temperaments, issues faced by jumpers,
and more.
It's the honest approach - like a favorite uncle passing along truthful bits
of wisdom - that makes this book not only useful, but fun to read as well. If
you're serious about bringing home the trophies, this is a book you'll want.
