This is according to webtender.

http://www.webtender.com/handbook/measurements.html

1 pony  =  1 ounce 
 
1 jigger/bar glass  =  1 1/2 ounces 
 
1 shot  =  1 1/2 ounces 
 

A "shotglass" is usually 1.5 ounces, but sometimes 2 ounces with a measuring 
line at 1.5 ounces. You can also buy (in US) "short shot" glasses or "pony 
shots" which are 1 ounce. Pony shots are usually used with martinis, 
manhattans, and rob roys.


I wish they would come up with a concrete standadization for measurements.  
Until there is, we will keep discussing the same thing over and over again.
