Went out to throw at the local park this morning but got blown out by 20-30 mph winds with gusts in the 40-50 mph range. Not sure what's up with that. Guess it was the tail end/clearing period following the rain from two days ago.

I was at Home Depot and Lowe's in the past few days and spotted orange traffic cones and thought about buying one to practice weight throws. The idea is to place the cone directly behind you, then go through your weight throw "wind up". As the weight swings back behind you, it should pass between your legs and the cone and as you cast it forward, it should pass behind the cone. Sink the hips, etc. Just another drill to help with proper technique and easily worth the $9 or so for the traffic cone.

Note to self: I need to apply some finish to the wooden roof rack that I use to haul cabers on my Bronco.

Note to self #2: I need to finalize the sheaf standards and bases I started on last fall. Nice design but it takes at least two people to erect them and three would be better. The drum majors want to use the standards for a mace over the bar (MOB) comp on the parade ground at the Sacramento Valley Games. These standards cannot be set up until just before the drum major MOB comp and have to come down as soon as the MOB is done to make room for the closing ceremonies. Did I mention they want the bar to go up to 40 feet? This is going to be a challenge right up there with Hercules cleaning out the Augean Stables.
