Here's one of them ideas I was talkin' about.
We're gonna try a tomahawk throwing contest for something different.
It's gettin' cold outside and dark is early. Musketman and I figgered a good old fashioned hawk throwin' contest might be a good idea. Only takes a minute to step out in the back yard and chuck yer tomahawk. Heck, if ya ain't married, ya might not even hafta go outside... :haha:
If you think you want to give it a go, 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 throw. The tomahawk blade must "stick" in the target.
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.
All targets must have the members screen name printed on them (so we know who the winner is).
The contest ends December 31st. All entries must be postmarked by January 2, 2009 and received by January 10, 2009 to be eligible.
Targets will not be returned unless an S.A.S.E. is included.

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;
I got the P.O. box 'cause it'll be a little more "official" havin' the same guy score all the targets the same way with the same measuring device.
Since I'm doing all the measurin', I guess I'll be not eligible to compete.
Since I'm not a moderator, moderators are welcome to compete. (Just don't expect any special treatment.) Heck, I ain't prejudiced, even Administrators(Claude) can play. :haha:
Have fun! Be safe! And let me know what you think. Should we try and do some more different kinds of stuff?
Have at it! :hatsoff:
