	Horses that are trained to be tied this way do just fine I'm sure.  The 
one field trialer I know stakes his horses this way. The horse that went 
the most miles on XP01 was staked out this way.  In many parts of the 
country, the ground is so hard it would be impossible to drive a stake 
deep enough but where feasible I don't see why it wouldn't work as well 
as other methods.
