Hawk Throw!

[Darkgael]

Jethro: "Should we try and do some more different kinds of stuff?"
You bet. This is a nice idea. What else do ya have in mind?
Knife throw?
Golf ball mortar shoot? (Kinda like horseshoes or Bocce 'cept ya gotta have a GB mortar.)

One throw. The tomahawk blade must "stick" in the target.

Is that one throw or one stick? If its one throw then I might as well give up now. It takes me a half dozen warm ups before I even hit the block. Getting it to stick in the block is gonna take even longer. Then there's the problem of hitting the paper.

The concept was to only have one cut in the target from the tomahawk, if there were more then it would be obvious that there was more than one throw made...

We cannot control how may times a person tries, I guess someone could run through a ream of paper until they get their best stick, but then they would be left with 499 pages of printer paper with slices in them and would have to answer to the Mrs. when she found out. :haha:

Now you've done it Swamp Rat. Now if they sharpen it there WILL be blood on the paper. :rotf: :hatsoff: Shouldn't tell these guys things like that, they could hurt themselves. :thumbsup:
See ya, Jim/OH :haha: :haha:

O.k. only only one cut in the paper. Smash marks, dirt, grass stains tears and blood are O.k. and possibly even encouraged for purposes of DNA analysis.

Took my throw today. Put up a new round in the backyard. Got zeroed in. Stapled the paper to the target and threw my hawk clean over the round. :shocked2: Took another throw and hit the edge of the paper. :hmm:

Pulled the paper and the next two throws were right in the center. Oh well, I'll send my target tomorrow. GW

[jethro224]

I finally took my throw today, just as the rain started. It was perfectly square in the middle of my round. Unfortunately, my paper was stapled off to one side. :rotf: At least this contest got me out throwin' and practicin'. :thumbsup: Heck, just havin' a round to throw at for practice is a step in the right direction. I feel there are no more places to throw at my neighbor's tree. You be the judge.

 

[GreyWhiskers]

You kinda look like Paul Bunyon. :v

 

[jethro224]

Yep, I think you done practiced enuff on that there tree... :haha:

 

[Darkgael]

Just took my throw. I'll be sending it tomorrow if I can find a stamp.

I'm waitin for my target to come back from Gomers. :rotf:

 

[jethro224]

Just remember the one cut rule Swampy. I ain't sure Gomer could do just one stick... :hmm: :haha:
