Slowly with a horseshoe pit
    #23614898 - 09/05/16 01:55 PM (7 years, 4 months ago)

Here's a few photos of the pit I've been working on. 

Holes along the edge of this plate so I could screw it to the top of the 6x6 and place it around the rod.  I did this to keep the rod hole from becoming over sized in the future.


The pins that come with a horseshoe set are always too short so I got 2 longer stainless rods instead.  Drilled an undersized hole 5" into this 6x6 and drove the pin.


Nailed some pressure treated 4x4s together(wish I had long screws instead), dug out the pit 4" down where the 4x4s lay and 5" down in the center. I dug a hole for the entire 6x6 and buried that.  Put down some weed barrier and added 5" of play sand (should have made the sand another inch or so deeper).


Here we go.


I have since added a strong plastic plate to the front 4x4 to prevent quick destruction of said 4x4. (I'll snap a pic in abit).  Still need to add some sort of wall to keep the shoes and sand in better, maybe a small higher sized table behind the pit for drinks and what have you.

Looking good!  The property we are living at has a horseshoe pit in the back yard, aka a hole in the ground with some sand, a pole in the middle, and a pallet behind the pole as a backboard.  I have never once played the game, but went back there a few days ago just tossing the shoes around and boy do I suck at getting it around/on the pole.  Looks easier than it is if the objective is just to get the shoe around the pole.
