At either end, anchor a three-foot spike so that about 15 inches are visible above ground, and the stake is angled slightly inward.

]]> 39102 1 35 Tip Go to horseshoepitching.com to find regulation courts and leagues.

]]> 39103 2 39 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/13195/39.jpg Draw foul lines Using chalk or string, mark two foul lines between the spikes. Each line should be three feet in front of the nearest spike. You’ll have to stand behind that line when throwing at the far target.

]]> 39104 3 51 Tip If you’re playing with little kids, move the foul lines another 10 feet closer to their targets.

]]> 39105 4 56 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/13195/56.jpg Pick your teams Split into two teams of one or two people each, and dole out two horseshoes to each side.

]]> 39106 5 63 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/13195/63.jpg Team one pitches The first team stands behind their foul line and pitches – or tosses underhand – both of their horseshoes, trying to get them on or as close to the stake as possible.

]]> 39107 6 74 Warning Make sure the opposing team is a safe distance away before pitching, and never throw wildly.

]]> 39108 7 80 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/13195/80.jpg Team two pitches When the first team has had their turn, it’s time for team two to try to take the advantage.

]]> 39109 8 86 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/13195/86.jpg Score it up Total up your score. There are a few different methods of scoring, but the simplest is to say shoes that land within six inches of the target count for one point each, and “ringers,” or those that land on the stake, count for three. Keep going until someone reaches a preset limit, like 20.

]]> 39110 9 103 Fact Actual horseshoes can vary in weight and size, so the game is played with standard, regulation shoes weighing two and a half pounds each.
