  • Showmanship at Halter
    SHOWMANSHIP AT HALTER Showmanship at Halter is essentially horsemanship on the ground. Where ever horses are bought or sold, a horseman attempts to fit his horse and set him up squarely on his feet and legs so that the horse can be presented to his best advantage to the perspective buyer. Therefore it is essential to understand the basic skills of fitting and showing a horse at halter. There are three aspects involved in showmanship at halter. They are: (1) Fitting the horse; (2) Training the horse; and (3) Showing or presenting the horse. I. Fitting the Horse A. Feeding – It takes a minimum of 45-60 days of feeding 10-15 lbs. of grain a day to fit a horse for halter if he is at or near his normal weight at the time that you start feeding. 1. Horses being fit for show or sale need a high quality balanced diet for maximum growth and conditioning. The average horse needs about 10% protein for maintenance. Horses being fitted should received up to 14% to maximized muscle development and improved hair coat. A mixed feed with vitamins and minerals added is recommended. Adding whole grains (such as oats) to a balanced feed will unbalanced the vitamin-mineral content in the feed and is undesirable. Fat in the form of corn oil can be added to the diet to increase the energy of the feed and add a shine to the hair coat. 2. Exercise is needed to develop muscle and maintain a healthy horse. The horse should be exercised 15 to 30 minutes per day.

  • Showing Light Horses at Halter
    SHOWING LIGHT HORSES AT HALTER The opportunity to show a well-groomed and properly fitted horse in top competition is a most rewarding experience. Such shows attract ever-expanding crowds in all sections of the United States. Methods of showing vary somewhat among the different breeds of light horses. However, the following points should be learned by all exhibitors, regardless of the breed they are showing. 1) Be neat, clean and appropriately dressed for the class. 2) Do not try to show a horse at halter until you are sure you can control him. You will need to practice with mock shows or trials. 3) Enter the ring and lead in the direction indicated by LEADING AT HALTER the ring steward until the judge requests that the horses line up for inspection. 4) Be alert, keep one eye on the horse and one on the judge but remember the horse is the main attraction. 5) Leave at least ten feet between your horse and the nearest other horse both in circling the ring and in the line-up. 6) When showing in line, hold the lead rope or strap in your right hand about 12-24 inches from the halter. The other end of the lead rope or strap should be neatly doubled in the left hand. You may change hands if it is more convenient to put your horse in position or in showing to the judge. Try to attract the horse's attention to the front so he turns his ears forward but do not hold his head too high.

  • AQHA Judging Halter
    Casebook prepared by: James C. Heird Tina M. Anderson Colorado State University for The American Quarter Horse Association Drawings prepared by Bobbie Skelton, El Reno, Oklahoma. JudgingJudging thethe AmericanAmerican QuarterQuarter HorseHorse atat HalterHalter FORWARD In 1995, the AQHA Executive Committee appointed a task force to examine the halter class and its evaluation by AQHA judges. Members of the task force were: Jerry Wells, Chip Knost, Carol Rose, Carol Harris, Mike Perkins, Dr. Marvin Beeman, Don Burt and Dr. Jim Heird. The following casebook is the result of the work accomplished by the halter sub-committee and has been reviewed and approved by the halter sub-committee of the show and contest committee as well as the halter task force appointed in 2000. The task force was unanimous in its opinion that the halter class is, has been in the past and will in the future be an important part of the AQHA show. Judges must realize that their selections in this class are as important as those selections made in any other class. There are selection guidelines, rules, and procedures that must be followed just as for any other class. In addition, understanding these criteria and guidelines is critical if the judge is to develop a consistent procedure and placing that benefits the breed and its exhibitors. 1 THE CLASS A halter class is defined as a class where the horse is judged based upon its conformation. Conformation is defined as the physical appearance of an animal due to the arrangement of muscle, bone and other body tissue. THE IDEAL There is no perfectly conformed horse except in the eye of the artist.
