Phew, what a long time it is since this News page was updated. Apologies but I’ve been very busy.

Rich and I went over to throw in the North Eastern US IKTHOF tournament in June. A great time was had by all and we met old friends and made new friends. Rich won the Expert hawk throw beating me into second place !! Well thrown, Rich.

In between times we have had regular fortnightly meetings of our Throwing Club which is usually attended by about 8 – 10 people.

You can find the write up and scores for the first UK KATTA Tournament here.

I’ve added the photos from this event – see here!

What a scorcher it was. So much so that we will have to organise some shelter from the sun in future afternoons. We all had a good time throwing, including Rich and myself, who are in serious training mode as we go to New Jersey, USA, to throw in an IKTHOF tournament there in the middle of June.

We were joined by a new thrower. Welcome, Paul. There were 9 of us there in total.

Watch this space as we will be having a fun day in July/ August, and if you fancy coming along, beginner or not, you will be assured of a lot of fun and good humour, in between throwing alot of knives, hawks etc.

The next throwing days are on Sundays

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
