Call your local cooperative extention office and ask for the plans.

4-H has several different plans for building jumps.

You can make jumps out of straw bales, barrels and for the poles - painted carpted tubes (the big rolls that hold carpets until all gone)

only if you don't mind killing your horses legs and possibly getting hurt

there is a reason jumps are built to "break away.

What are you onabout killing them?

As long as no sharp bit and they fall to the gound and move it a horse clips them then there safe.

Straw deffinatly scatters if hit.
