It seems that there is some interest amongst the readers on how to put on a horseshoes pitching clinic. You can get the local community involved, or even just have a few friends come over to enjoy it. It's also great for small clubs! So, I've decided that I'm giving away a free report on how to put on a horseshoes pitching clinic to all those who receive my newsletter! That's the first free

No horsing around - Kingman Daily MinerNow that's sportsmanship! Telling the winner, who beat you for first place, that you would rather have seen the reactions from the winner's grandkids when he won than winning the game itself.

Just thought this would show the interest in horseshoes lately. This is from cbs news. Let's face it, it's the summer and it's coming to an end. We only have a little more time to enjoy being outside, so might as well make the best of it! # Horseshoes: The history of horseshoe pitching can be traced back to Roman soldiers.

I just wanted to tell everyone about the games we had going this past weekend. Man were they great! We paired up and the games started at about 11am. The weather was perfect for throwing shoes as the sun wasn't too unbearing. The first game I played, we didn't do so hot. Both me and my teammate had a rough time finding our swing. Unfortunately for us, the other team was dead on. A quick game

Here are some unrelated but interesting links I found. The gardening links might be useful to some since i find most people who play horseshoes also are into gardening.

High-stakes horseshoes - Providence Journal I just saw this article about an upcoming horseshoes tournament. It's interesting to read about these top competitors that are throwing ringers at a 90% rate. The game of horseshoes has been kicked up a few notches. I'm certainly not a horseshoes champion, but it's interesting to read about how these average guys shine during this two week event.
