The New Long Range Target

Yesterday (10th April) we built a new target for the range. It’s a beast of a thing, designed for long distance and ‘anything’ throwing. When it was done we christened it with throwing shovels, bad axes and some hawks from 50(ish)ft.

April 11th Open Day

Sunday 9th May 2010

Sunday 9th may was another great day at the throwing ranges.

The weather was just perfect for throwing. Not too warm but pleasant.

We were joined by 3 new throwers, again. Welcome Rob, Mikey and Tong. Apparently Mikey ( Rob’s son ) never stopped talking all the way back to Shropshire about what a fantastic day he had.

Our other new thrower, Tong, is one of the most naturally gifted throwers I have ever seen. Within a couple of hours he was consistently sticking 2 spin knives about 18′ fromthe targets.

In the afternoon we all enjoyed the fun of Mountain Man throwing using one knife and one tomahawk and throwing at playing cards. One of our regulars, Ken, pulled off, in one throw a perect score where he stuck the knife straight into the card. Well done, Ken. Good memory eh ? 

Above are just a few photos of some of the aspects of our throwing Club. Come along and try it. Rest assured of a good day out.

Plans are afoot to move a couple of the throwing lanes on the new range to an area we should be clearing soon, behind the first Mountain Man target. This should give us a lot more room to throw and socialise in.

The next throwing days are on Sundays
