Introduction to the Jeffery Method of Horse Handling (Taken from the book) "Kel. B. Jeffery became a legend in his own lifetime, and there has been great interest and discussion created by his introduction of this thought-provoking method of handling horses. In this book the author gives a clear explanation of Jeffery's Method, vividly illustrated with photographs. But he goes further than that; he broadens the subject to include a whole concept of horse handling and adds his own interpretations based on a lifetime of experience with horses. This book will be invaluable to many people, and particularly to the young who are joining Pony Clubs and Schools of Equitation with a view to learning the finer points of handling and riding horses with increased understanding, pleasure and success."

Author Notes:Maurice Wright observed Kell Jeffery, then 75 years old, demonstrating this technique in front of a large and skeptical crowd. Jeffery appeard much too frail to tackle any unbroken animal, yet within an hour and a half, this 75-year old master was riding a relaxed and obediant horse around the ring-a horse that three trainers had previously given up as hopeless. Maurice Wright perfected this method on his own horses and has shared his knowledge over the years with hundreds of people who want to train their horses without stress and trauma.
Further Title Description:The Jeffery Method is a foundational, pressure-and-release horse handling technique developed in Australia. It emphasizes building trust through understanding horse behavior, desensitization, and encouraging the horse to voluntarily face and yield to the handler rather than running away

I used the Kell Jeffery method forty years ago to train two BLM wild mustang and it worked beautifully for both, providing me with a wonderful lifetime experience and two amazing horses who became my good friends. I highly recommend this method. It's brilliant! Now that I am 75, like Mr Jeffery, I would feel very comfortable to use it with another wild horse!
