The pole in the center of a round pen or round corral was used to snub up a "wild" horse after it was roped, so that they could get a saddle on it (usually with the added help of a hind leg tied up). Then someone would mount this snubbed and legged horse, and it would be turned loose so the rider could buck him out. Part of the process of "breaking" a horse in the old west. Anyway, it is certainly nothing the average person would ever use these days. I couldn't imagine needing to snub a Fjord to a post...... Unless it was to keep it from eating!
