You’ve heard of a ringer. In your memory can you hear the sound of horseshoes being pitched and hitting the metal stake or the thud as it hits the dirt? Or wooden backboard? Not just a pastime of yesteryear. Here’s a video of the best Horseshoe Pitcher ever.
The pits are protected with metal covers shown in photos below.
Turns out I wasn’t in town for the horseshoes tournament held July 2nd.
If you’re in Ohio, you can check out the Ohio Horseshoe Pitchers Association page.

Video was impressive. Dc
I have never seen a horseshoe court of this size. Amazing talent on video.
I spent a lot of time in the rural country. Horseshoe pits were common. My brother has a pit in his back yard. I think there are some in our parks. I have never seen pits as nice as these. I have played on occasion.I have family any friends who were very good. Not me tho.It has been a long time sinceI have played.
Would you believe I have never seen horseshoes played in person?
I believe it.
