Thank you, Karen, for these pictures! Good examples of using the
poles.
Thanks. Those PVC poles are quite versatile. You can use them for trot
poles, on the ground or with a holder at each end to make them into
caveletti. You can ask a horse to sidepass over one.You can set them up
in "maze" patterns to practice steering and to practice asking one foot at a
time to move. You can go forward through part of the maze, back through
another part. I like to have a section set up as an "L" for backing
through.
I've accumulated them over a period of years, buying them from the local
home improvement store. I think some of them are at least 18 years old, and
stay out in the weather year round. I originally bought them to be the
cross-pieces for the jump standards, back when Emily was showing hunters.
We've definitely gotten our money's worth out of them.
