Great book....covers everything for horse and rider and from beginner to experienced person........good buy.....

Barrel racing is one of the equestrian sports which lends to an exciting competition both for spectator and competitor, but few books cover barrel racing. Instructor and champion racer Marlene McRae has developed an entire program for the barrel racer and shares her arena tips for this audience; from selecting a champion barrel-racing horse to using equipment, beginning barrel racing patterns, and competing. A 'must' for all equestrian sports enthusiasts, Barrel Racing 101is as entertaining as it is informative and highly recommended for school and community library Sports & Athletics collections.

Good book to read, lots of insight from the author, focus's on different aspects of barrel racing other than just barrels. Not a guide but more of a reading book. She has some great suggestions and different perspectives.

This book is great. It actually tells me what I need to do and think of first. It helps that it is step by step. Also seeing what equipment to use and what kind of horse I need also helped.
