 Topic: Newbie in Boston AreaPosted: 2/12/07 at 9:43am |

Well, after lurking and reading for a while on the NASGA boards, I figured I would post and introduce my newbie-self to the membership. I'm a former DIII college thrower (hammer ~150', weight ~47', and shot, ~40') who is looking to get back into throwing, and thought that the HG looked like a fun way to do it, especially since I'm half Scottish. After a few years layoff, I've been hitting the gym rather hard looking to get strong enough to throw around the caber and 56#.
I'm located just north of Boston and am looking for anyone in the area who might be interested in tutoring a newbie to the HG. Drop me a line if you're in the area. Thanks.

Welcome. I'm no expert but love training sessions. I'm in Southern Maine so not too far away. I am in gym mode right now but will start throwing again Apr 1 snow or no. PM or email me at adargie@yahoo.com and I will help if I can.

Wow, such quick responses. Thanks everyone. dWood, I'll get in touch with the guys you listed. Dave Cheney is the AD for the St. Jude Games right? I was looking at maybe slating that as my first games since it's close to home and I know I'm free that weekend. Al and Leroy, I'll drop you an email to get more details. Leroy, I took a look at the Maine HG site and will have to check to see if I'm free that weekend, but looks like it could be fun. Plus I saw that the Clan of Honor this year is the MacDougalls, which would be cool since I'm a MacDougall on my mother's side. |
