Fall '09 Tomahawk Throw

[jethro224]

Thought I'd give you non-shotgunners something to do. (BEFORE it snows this time. :wink: )Here's the rules;

The target will be a regular sheet of typing/printer paper with an X drawn thru the center from corner to corner.

The distance of the throw will be a minimum of 12 feet from the target.

One stick per entry. The tomahawk blade must "stick" in the target.

One entry per member.

Tomahawks only! No knives, belt axes, etc.

Targets submitted with more than one cut will be disqualified.

Targets ripped or torn beyond recognition will be disqualified.

Judging will consist of measuring the tomahawk's cut from end to end, divide by half to find the center of the cut, then measure that spot to the center of the X on the target, that number will determine the winner.Like this;

All targets must have the members screen name printed on them (so we know who the winner is).

All entries must be postmarked by November 2, 2009 and received by November 10, 2009 to be eligible.

Targets will not be returned unless an S.A.S.E. is included.

Might give it a try, I haven't tosed one for several years, bumb shoulder don't like that game, I will see if I can even hit the block then decide, it is still sitting in the back yard in the weed patch.

Great. I'm gonna try this one. I still got my four corners target in my shootin' bag. This one and the shotgun target I'll try to get mailed instead of stored.
