Do you measure a horse hand at the head or back?
You don't measure it at either point, to be technical. Horses are traditionally measured in units called hands, which measures literally how many hands tall a horse is. One hand is equivalent to 4 in., or 10 cm. You measure at the highest point of the withers when the horse is standing square--ideally without shoes on. (By the way, the withers are the point at which the mane stops and the neck begins to slope into the back. This is my definition of it, anyway. Look up the parts of a horse to see where the withers are.) ________________________________________________________________________________________

To have a good two-point for a beginner, follow these basic steps: When you are about 20 feet in front of the jump, stand up in your stirrups, push down your heels, and stick your butt out a little. When you are about 5 feet or so in front of the jump, push your hands about two feet up the mane, or neck of the horse, and grab some of the hair to hoold your hands in place. Maintain this position during the jump, and wait one stride after to release. As you get better, so will your position. Good Luck!
