    You didn't happen to get his name did you? He might have his scores in the NASGA database.

    Generally all the athletes I've met have been really cool, even the pro's. It's one of the few sports I've seen where even the pro's will give their competitors advice or help, even at the cost of their rival bettering their throw.
    I've literally seen a guy take the shirt off his own back and wipe down a caber that was slippery with morning dew for another competitor.

    Like a big dummy I didn't get his name. If at all possible I'm going to the Kansas City Highland games in June. He's supposed to be their and I'll recognize him if I see him. I did say to him "you must be pretty high up on the list" meaning his scores, and he said he was. This young man seemed very gracious, but looked like he could toss a caber like it was a yardstick.
