Description:

Richter made 21 straight sticks this night!! The hatchet target and target stand had been newly constructed by Jason Jackson. The target was constructed from a three-inch thick oak cookie, reinforced in the back. The stand made of 2x6s. Rules for the evening were approximately that each person threw two sets of four hatchets. The first person to reach ten sticks being the winner. Simple rules, gotta win by two. If a thrower is hot and reaches 10 straight sticks in a row, the thrower continues throwing until a miss. The all-time Calhoun record is 37 straight sticks held by Ben Richter, with Jason Jackson in second place with an incredible 33.
