Having subscribed to this magazine for a number of years now, I still find it covers the widest range of topics in a nicely condensed format that makes for easy, but very informative, reading. The electronic version makes it one of the best value for money educational tools around! Thanks :)

I love this magazine, so much information and inspiration from so many great horsemen and women.
The electronic issue is so easy to download, especially as I’m from the UK.
Subscribed from 3 years now and will continue to do so!

I was looking for a magazine that would help improve my skills, training, and riding. I was very excited when I found this magazine after trying many other equine magazines(which all seemed to only be full of fluff pieces and ads). Each article gets you thinking about how to be better, and has many tips and tricks that I can apply. I always look forward to each Issue coming out!

I have now received 3 electronic versions of this magazine, and I recommend it highly. I can print what I want and not have to recycle what I don’t want. The articles are varied enough that a trail rider like me can find useful information even though I don’t spend much time in the arena. I also like that the trainers who write the articles are similarly gentle and thoughtful. I would recommend the publication to my clients who want to learn more. Last month, for example, I really enjoyed Deb Bennet’s saddle fit article and the links she sent me to to find more resources.

I have received Eclectic Horseman from the day of conception. I even subscribe to Trail less Traveled that Emily was a part of. I knew right off that Emily’s desire was to provide a learning tool for those that were seeking information on how to work from where the horses is at. Best learning tool in my tool bag. Best gift to give a friend on the same path.

I am very new to this method of training. The trainer I’m working with Lisa Fisher recommended I read Eclectic Horseman. The articles are great. Everything is easy to comprehend. The authors give simple straightforward information. The photos are also quite helpful.

I’m a new subscriber to Eclectic Horseman and upon opening my first issue I immediately saw that this is an entirely different kind of equine publication from anything I’ve read over the past fifty years. Eclectic Horseman is the kind of magazine you want to read cover to cover, like a good nonfiction book. The diversity of the contributors and the intelligent approach taken in each piece is refreshing and thought provoking. My only regret is that I hadn’t subscribed and been reading Eclectic Horseman for years. But I’m a subscriber now and I’m thrilled that this magazine exists. The equestrian world needs it, and our horses deserve it.

I never knew this magazine existed until I picked up a free copy at a clinic recently. I read the free copy from cover to cover that same night and subscribed immediately. I appreciate the diversity of the content: clinic style pieces with photographs that advance my learning, historical information to build my background knowledge, and the big name contributors. In a predominantly male dominated industry, it’s also great to see a wealth of renowned female contributors in this magazine. When I see an email from Eclectic Horseman in my inbox I always read it. Thanks for all you do!

I enjoy the electronic version of my Eclectic Horseman Subscription very much. First of all, Eclectic Horseman Magazine is full of down to earth, real equine difficulties and successes, presented by trainers who know their topic well. I learn something from every issue. When I am finished with the print magazine, I just can’t bring myself to throw it away. That stack was getting taller and taller. I was hesitant to try the electronic version. I know horses better than computers, so I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to retrieve my Eclectic Horseman magazines if I put it away for later. I am happy to say that I have not lost or missed an issue yet. The directions to retrieve the issues are very good!
