Put a limit the AB entries,depending on your normal GSD entry to control the amount of judges needed. And it takes just as much manpower to switch from a 24 inch jump to a 26 inch to a 28 inch to a 12 inch jump, takes the same amount to put out the articles and the gloves. I found myself changing jump heights as much in a GSD specialty obed. ring as in an AB ring. JMO, as always.
