How tall are you lot who own cobs?

[hellybelly6]

I think it not to do with horse height, its to do with horse barrel width.

I am 5'6" and my horse is 16.3 ish he is clydey x highland and I look like a pea on a mountain because of his big barrel and depth of body.

I knew a 6 foot + lad who could vault onto Jake and he looked small on his back.

Mine is 14.3hh and a 5'9 rider doesn't look tall on him. I ride a 14.1hh HW and he feels about the right size and I'm 5 foot 3-ish

He is also ridden by Mike who is 6'2" (or possibly 6'3 - sorry Mike) in my siggy and in the piccy below.
