on 1/12/2007 with four people you should have each player throw one horse shoe, all from same side.. two closest are team mates.. not what he said.. and a 'leaner' has to be touching AND standing up.. ones just touching are one point.. and one point is awarded if another horse shoe (one that didnt score) can touch the pole and your shoe.. and the person who scores last always goes first.. when you score you go, when they score they go first next.. and at eleven points, teams switch sides.. and only play to 21.. and if you built your pits right(with blue clay and 6ft.by3ft.and stakes 40ft.apart), then the front of one pit to the stake your throwing at will be the 37 ft. foul line.. put a marker 10ft. in front of this for women, if they want.. these guidelines, unlike yours, HAVE NOT been adapted.. i am a professional and have my blue clay pits with wood border and backing(4ftby2ft)..
on 8/27/2006 If you have a fine-tooth file handy, you can smooth out any burrs that the horse shoes might get.
on 11/22/2005 Explosive horseshoes may cause injury. Best to stick with standard, non-explosive shoes.
on 11/22/2005 Make sure you set up your horseshoe court outside. If you don't, the horseshoes may hit the ceiling as they are being tossed.
