Anyone still interested in the Clinic give me a holler. Two more folks got onboard last night. It's going to make a difference...if you are thinking about improving this season, I recommend this as a jumping off point.

Will be great to finally be at a clinic where penicillin or methadone aren't involved.
 For the clinic, are kilts to be worn, or just workout attire? |

Bravo NTH, Bravo.
This was my first games and because of the willingness of people to help me and the camaraderie, I will not only be back to this venue, but will strive to make it to many other games. Thank you all who helped me, too many to mention, or I just forgot your names already, ha, kidding. Great job! Edited by big pur - 2/27/12 at 2:59am |

Had a great time this weekend...feel like dog shit today but outstanding weekend none the less
Mark, dunc, and the rest of the NTH crew: great games ran smooth this is my second time throwing in FW and itll be a regular stop for me great atmosphere. Matt and Andy: great clinic I feel like I got alot out of it and appreciate all the help I'd definitely come out for the clinic again Spencer: good seeing you man and congrats on the huge LWFD and HWFD throws, and have a quick and speedy recovery on your grade 3 fat strain and for the record you don't look a pound over 320, and congrats on the engagement I'm happy for you bro. Matt Thompson: congrats on your big weight PRs Duncan: great getting to finally throw with you, you owned me in stones this weekend, wont happen again... Ever. I'm gonna go ahead and attribute my poor stone performance to the subtle hair flips and winks you were sending my way you sneaky bastard. And I want to give you a special thank you for introducing me to yuengling definitely changed my life Had a blast had a great time throwing the A class this weekend is one of the funnest groups to be a part of look forward to seeing all y'all again soon.... And for the record mike beech might possibly be the next "most interesting man in the world" |

Thanks to Mark , Duncan, John, Mark, and everyone else who made this game the best one ever. Sheaf towers up on the first try, nothing got broken, ( nothing we can't blame on the wind ) There were lots of PR's and field records, ( that must have been some clinic with the Vincents ) There was a clan tent present, growing ang growing. And thanks to the guys in the masters class who pushed me to throw 100% , it was AWESOME!
And a million welcomes to the newest Cannon, congradulations !

Mark and Duncan put on a great games as usual. I am really glad that my first game as an A was at this game. Being able to compete with The Vincents, Spencer, Swamp Jesus, Dunc, and Murph was a blast. It was fun as hell...
Can't wait to throw with those guys again. |

Thanks for the Props Murph! Drive out of the back? Who knew? So that's how you're supposed to throw the weights?
Love me some NTH's these are great games and a better bunch of folks is not to be found. Two FULL days of throwing this early in the season makes you feel "AWESOME" for a few days... ("AWESOME" in a few places I didn't even know existed...) Big Texas Sized Thanks to all the folks putting this on. Also a big thanks to Matt and Andy for going throw by throw with us all day on Saturday and trying to fix the mess that is my "technique" (and I use that term loosely). Also a big thanks to Andy for the application of Equiblock that made me throwing on Sunday even possible...

Thanks to everyone to helped with my 48 hour dive into Highland Games, especially the Vincent brothers for their class. I had a great time with everyone and looking forward to my next one.
Which games would be good for me to do around the end of April time? I figured that would let me competein Shamrock strongman on March 17th and then get some practice in. Thanks again. Bill
