There is always something special about the Grandfather Mtn. HG. This year was the 57th year running. The weather was perfect for a mid summer game in Carolina. Partly cloudy high of 78 and low humidity. Saturday I threw with the Pro class. I had a personal record with the heavy hammer at 103' 8" for a second place behind one of our best hammer throwers Mike Pockoski. I turned the Caber 3x but was not good enough as I turned 3, 11:45 and Wes turned it once for a 12:00. I hit 15 standing WOB which is good for me.. I ended tie for 4th with big Kerry.
Sunday early morning again to throw with the Masters group. Myself, Kerry and big Mike Nease threw Saturday and were a little beat up!
Kerry and I battled all day again trading 1st and 2nd's. At the end Kerry won, but not without me pushing him. I won the caber and sheaf. I had 3 attempts at a new world record at 38', close but no cigar. I still have a few games left to hit that!!
Well im off to the gym to work out some of this soreness.
Kill it,
Irish Celt
