The current competitive challenge is inspired by the Irish and Highland Games Sheaf Toss. Make a 5 or 10 pound sandbag with a handle, and toss it over your heard over a high bar or tree branch, something you can measure, but also something that you can increase the height of. Video your best throw and submit it for the competition. If you want to be really authentic, make the sheaf out of a 10 pound bundle of straw and use a pitchfork to toss it over your head. Submit your video on the members page and on social media using #sheaftosscompetition2024
