fred punk i must say i used to feel the same way about horseshoes. until 6 years ago when i began pitching. now i love it. i have a 58% ringer and am the youngest person to ever win my county's Class A championship. try it in clay instead of sand and see if it doesn't change your feelings. it bugs me that poker and dominoes can be shown on ESPN and not horseshoes. its a great sport with little recognition.
the rule for the stakes to be apart in horseshoe is 40ft if ur a woman junior or elder u can throw from 30ft, i think alan francis is a 12 tiem world champ and his pitch is a reverse 3/4 turn, he's coming this year to iowa to play in the world championship and so am i
I agree. The guys we play with all have a beer in their hand. I do respect Mr. Francis though. He is a class act. Played against some world participants today in Carlinville and......wow. I was impressed. I'm going out to practice now.........
Walter Ray Williams has not been at the top of his game for several years because he has not had the time to practice alot like he did in the 90's. But it does not matter because he still loves to play.
It's more of a party game with a lot of beer and friends I don't see how u can have a world championships Haha thats funny.

Walter Ray will not be able to beat alan francis, alan is on a good roll right now. and looks like he is unstoppable

i dont think Walter will, hes making too much money in bowling, and theres no way hed beat Allen, unless he got REALLY lucky.
