A-frame/V-pole Exercises?

[appaloosacaz]

Hello,

Just wondering what sort of grid work exercises people do involving A-Frames/V-poles to help their horse pick up their feet, as a whole grid? I'm looking to play with some tomorrow, and was wondering how people incorporated them into their exercises?

Was given some in a lesson a few weeks ago. We had a small grid of 3 fences up, IIRC one non jumping stride between each element. The V poles went on the middle (second) jump, just to make him pick up a bit more in front, and it worked.
