RMNR '08 Hawk Throw Competition

There are a lot of different competitions at Rendezvous, like muzzler loader shoots, pistol shoots, primitive bow & arrow shoots. Our Favorite is the Hawk & knife throw. Weston is pretty good at it, and so when Lyn went down to throw this time he took Weston with him.
The great thing about these competitions is that anyone can try, it doesn't matter if you are experienced or just learning everyone gets to compete, and then the won with the highest score in men, women and kids wins. The other great thing is you throw the course in a group of 8 participants and everyone encourages and helps everyone else.

This was Weston's 1st time to stick it in the log, and he scored 1 pt. for this throw. Everyone in the group had been giving him pointers the whole course and were genuinely happy for him when he finally stuck it, and he was so proud!
This was 1 of Lyn's many sticks through out the course. They both did a great job and we are proud of them both!
