Hey everyone, it’s good to be part of the forum, lots of good information to get me started throwing. While I am not new to throwing or heavy lifting, I am new to the highland games and many of the specific events. I am looking for someone to do some training with and be able to learn from. I would really like to get back into competition. Any advice or direction would be a great help. Thanks Justin

Thanks Justin If you're looking for someone to train with, well...Read the two posts up at the top of the forum that are "stickied"...one about getting started, the other about making practice implements. That's good information in there. If you're looking for someone to train with, well... also check the NASGA board...http://www.nasgaweb.com ..
