Hunter Seat Equitation George Morris Updated Third Edition brings you a wealth of information starting at the very beginning all the way through to showing in USET and Medal, Maclay competition.

This is the definitive work on the subject of hunter seat equitation from the master himself George Morris. He has been trainer to such greats as Anne Kursinski, Buddy Brown, Conrad Homfeld, Katie Monahan Prudent, Olympic rider and Chef D'Equipe of the U.S. Team and so much more, and his keen insights and knowledge provide the reader with the ultimate resource.

Starting with correct mounting procedure, correct positions at various gaits, the correct use of the aids and the three levels of jumping, George Morris elevates your understanding of flatwork movements such as turn on the forehand and turn on the haunches, addresses backing, shying, circles and voltes. He teaches you the correct timing of the release, the use of the stick and the voice and leg and seat aids over and approaching fences. Throughout the book there are many photos to give you a visual on what you are aiming to achieve. There is essential advice on speed and control, as well as entry into the show ring including what tack, what turnout and the key areas to focus on during your round.

TheHorseStudio.com review: Clear, concise, and definitive. An excellent book. Updated here in 1990 release of the established 1971 classic. The poise and confidence that George ultimately instills in all his students is keenly taught here. We know that George probably knows more than most of us will collectively ever know in a lifetime, and this is a great introduction for the beginner as well as help for the established rider who wants to define their craft.

Hardback. 198pp
