Have you notice an ad in the recent EN for a tack company? One of
the pictures in this ad is of a horse and rider jumping "4 1/2 feet" in this
saddle. However, the poles are set up on Blocs, two on each
end. The Blocs are assembled in a "T" formation. A Bloc is 2' high
and 6" thick. So, the jump is only 2 1/2 feet high.
I'm hoping that the horse and rider did jump a 4 1/2 foot jump in that
saddle but the picture didn't turn out so they just used this picture
instead.
