Heights are determined by reviewing nasga database for any scores this season and those of last season.  This sometimes has brought some trouble for me and other athletes as an opening height was my/their PR for WOB for example.  The average is what the average is for the class contested.

I was told back when I started in 2009, 1) this is a game not practice, 2) we are not here so everyone gets a score, 3) lift more and throw farther.

This system has worked well for the Gaylord Games and the athletes (for the most part) have stepped up to the occasion and smashed PRs over the years. Clap

Novel approach, I say I wish more AD's had the same vision...long time judge at different AD's games(Ad calls the shots, I just call the throws) and had an athlete ask the AD for a 6 foot WOB opening height..WTF a midget could dunk 6 feet...most games around here 8 or 9 is minimum but like 10

A reminder that the Caber will, as done previously, be scored turn/no turn.
