What would be a good 5 left pole and what kinda heights have people gotten off of them?? i am on a 14'6'' 150 holding like 13'6'' and i jumping at a 15' bunge and clearing it clean. working on short run stuff helps with that but just curious what a good 5 left pole is :P

Donell Hill of Alabama vaults from 5 lefts on a 15'6 170 and recently PRed at 16'.25"

I look forward to working with him next year.
