Demystifying Judging
You love showing and enjoy the work getting there, but sometimes you may have walked away from the show without ribbons and wondered what happen. Big R judges and coauthors, Tricia Booker and Julie Winkel wrote Judging Hunters and Equitation WTF (Want The Facts)? to help riders, trainers, and parents to understand the why behind the ribbons as well as how they can improve their show strategy.

Riders love everything about horses, but sometimes it is tough to find the right gift they don’t have. Judging WTF is a beautiful photo-filled, 224-page, hardcover book that shares the history behind judging hunters, a behind-the-scenes look from the judge’s box, and a deep dive into what the judges are looking for and why they pin the way they do.
“As licensed officials, we’re the spokespersons for our sport. Through writing and producing this book, we have the opportunity to shed a positive light on this sport that we love, as well as paving a golden path for the future through education and a greater understanding of what sometimes seems like a mystery.”
