    Stone for height

    As part of our first Highland Games competition I introduced an event called "stone for height". Using the same bar as for the sheaf toss and weight over bar, you make a two-handed throw of a 42 lb stone. It's like the Braemar Stone Toss in that you throw in place without any approach. See me demonstrate this on YouTube

    Tell me what you think; would you include this event in your Highland Games competition or like Hamish's father in Braveheart, when speaking of the Irishman Michael, he muttered the missive "insane Irish"?
