Tossin' yer washers

[Legdog]

Let's not put the cart before the horse on ordering.

Merely soliciting indications of interest. (and there seems to be be plenty to make a min order)

I like the Cambo idea as well but would a sticker handle the abuse? Seems to me the stuff needs to be painted on the way Bombat does it.

I play with some sheep ranchers that meet up and play on their fishing lease down in Val Verde Co. They don't have any use for boards, etc. Just PVC stuck in the ground at each end of the "pit" and 3 of the 6 washers painted fluorescent orange. No extra space taken up. You better bring your "A" game when it comes to talking trash, because they go at it non-stop! It's a blast to take part in. If you start sliding washers on the sand, they'll rip you a new one and start pouring beer in front of the lip of the hole and stomp the sand down with their boot so the washers "stick" better. Good times! Some of the better trash talking topics are college football, the outcome of past fist-fights, politics and fishing.

I play on a board that is about 3 feet circumference with one hole in the middle, board is carpeted and has an incline to it, and I attached crown royal bags under the whole to catch the washers. We play to 21 with rules like the poster above stated. I haven't ever seen boards like mine (except for my BIL) who built a set also, so I'm sure some will criticize but as long as you are having fun who cares what the board looks like.

I agree, I didn't mean I could/would make any "TBH" sets. However I will be willing to test the design on some custom stickers around my place.

I'd order a TBH set

Get a rope Leggy







And we make ours:
-Three hole- 3.5" holes
-NO CARPET
-2" 3/4" washers
-10' apart from front of board

3 holes, 3 washers, 12 feet apart. We use a 2.5 " washer and a 4" hole. We have a 12 foot chain we screw into each board to have the exact distance every time. We don't use carpet.....I like the sound it makes when it hits wood.
Not a fan of 1 hole washers and the leaner, closest to the hole thing. You either make it in the hole or you don't!!

My vote would be for laser etching the TBH logo on the bottom of the washer and Texas Bowhunter.Com across the top.

One set with the red white and blue lettering/logo and one with green/camo.

I dig that idea...

Wow! Whatever happened to the vienna sausage cans in the ground?

Thats how we played every day at lunch.

washers is a great game - no doubt.

but check out a game that started in the midwest and is now seen at tailgates from college fb to nascar: cornhole.

goofy name - great game. advantage over washers? no worrying about "closest to" and no washers bouncing everywhere into the darkness. and you can't put a can in an asphalt parking lot. also seems a little more standardized than washers - always one hole on a 2 x 4 panel, 27 feet apart (front edge to front edge) tossing one pound bag of corn. and if you hate the game you can always feed the corn bags to your deer!

try it - you'll like it.

We spray painted our first few sets and we'd knock all the paint off in a few long weekends. I'm sure bombat is powdercoating theirs, or the like, which would certainly last longer than spray paint. The last several sets we've got, Wilson cut vinyl stickers to go on them before his vinyl plotter spit the bit, and they've lasted a very long time. I'm not sure how heavy the vinyl is that Cameron makes his wraps out of, but I'm sure he could get some that would work. Wilson will know how heavy ours are.

Of course they'll all last longer (short games) if you only put the boards 12 feet apart.

The last set that I played on all the washers were the same ... galvanized!
To tell the difference, they put one "dimple" in each side of one set, with a 1/8" drill bit. It worked good in the dark, or if you were partially blind, or mostly drunk ... in my case, all 3 applied. I also believe that the weight difference, in the dimpled washers accounted for my lousy throwing that night. Well, that's what I'm telling everyone anyway!
