haha. l am pretty sure I've done some 4'6+ jumps..(BUT most of them have been on greenies jumping a 2' jump - there was one time where l did basically a 4'6 course.the jumps were only 2'6 though lol).
The highest ''actual'' jump I've done is 4' though.

3' 9'' but height isnt always as important as difficulty like a bank is much more difficult than a vertical in a ring
check out my open question about a dressage saddle plz!

We had 1m45 at the end of a simple grid once, l cleared it but nearly fell off afterwards so have not jumped anything near that height again haha. Sticking to the lower jumps =)

About 30+ years ago l took my then 7 year old AQHA gelding to a renown trainer in Norco. Roy Traylor was known for taking on the ''tough'' horses & top trainers in the LA area would send their incorrigible horses to him, such as Jimmy Williams & so on.
Well l took my little gelding (16.2 hh) to him with one thing in mind. l WANTED him to push peanuts & no matter what l did, l could not get him to lower his head.
Roy took one look at the horse & said ''There is NOTHING wrong with him, that is the way God made him & it is physically impossible for him to do that!''. With that he put us on the rail & had us popping over fences. Then he hollered at me to take the triple & as l pointed the big guy towards it, l thought, ''Well we've done 3'9'' & a spread, what is 4'?'' The first of the triple was 4' the second was 5' & the last one was WAY taller than l am ( l am 5'3'') so l was judging it at about 6' & all were stationary jumps!
So, we make our approach, & sail over it! Then after landing, took off for the middle fence (5') & l am still thinkin'.''Well we made it over 4' what is one more foot?''. We jumped it & cleared it! Then after landing from that, l looked at the 6' fence, my faithful horse looked at it & we both said ''NOPE!!!'' & stopped FLAT!
Oops!
Roy told me to go to on the rail & make the approach again. l knew we were in trouble. l picked up a canter again & headed for the first fence & sailed over it, same with the second fence but as soon as we landed I'd remembered something that sounded like a BB gun getting pumped with air prior to my take off on the first fence. Sure enough, Roy shot my horse in the tush & the two of us SAILED over that last fence!
Upon landing however, l was sitting on the big guy is neck in front of the pommel of my ever faithful Stuben Siegfried ( l still own this saddle!) & my life flashed before me. l was figuring that this guy was going to get even with me for EVERYTHING I'd ever done to him in the past & anything l would ever do to him in the future.
Then, this big horse slowed down to the nicest western pleasure lope I'd ever felt, took that upside down neck & put me right back in the saddle! That was the first time he'd saved somebody is bacon, but in the years following, would not be the last.

3'. and l almost threw up! i had this feeling my horse was going to run out. & sure enough!! he did!! it was 4 strides between jumps. l was totally freaked the first time, & let him run out, but the second time l sat the first 2 strides, & at that point l could not go back or run out! l was in my half seat for the last 2 strides & my horse cleared it like it was nothing!! it was fantastic. l was on cloud nine all day!
yeah, its small, but im getting there!
