I was originally interested in a cylinder, but went with a sphere instead and I am glad that I did. Looking forward to giving this thing a ride when it warms up.
Highland Games Events:
- Caber - Difficult to practice on my own
- Sheaf - Purchased fork and 16# sheaf (Michael Black, Aug 2023, $220)
- Stone - Weighed out a couple of stones from the yard
- Weight for Height - Purchased 42# (Michael Black, Jan 2024, $200)
- Hammer - Purchased 16# (Michael Black, Feb 2023, $90); Need 22# & blades?
- Weight for Distance - Purchased 28# (Michael Black, Feb 2023, $115); 42# (Michael Black, Jan 2024)
Sport Kilt (June 2023, $120)
Running Total = $250+$220+$200+$120 = $790
Hammer blades would cost $45 and a 22# Hammer would be $90 should I choose to invest in those this season or at the end of the season. There is a lot of work I need to do right now with the equipment I have. Considering some of my other hobbies, being fully outfitted for under $1000 is a pretty good deal.
It would be nice to have a set of standards, but the set up, transport and tear down is a bit of a production.
I also participated in a thrower's clinic in Brighton (April 2023, $50) and several practice sessions in Arvada and Colorado Springs.
