    Ha, kind of reminiscent of the caber toss (the log throwing event in Scotland). Wonder if it is descendent/related.

      I write a bit about it in the companion blog article!

    Mechanically looks very similar to an Oberhau/Zornhau

      Hi,
      the two KdF-related manuscripts explicitly mentioning Stangeschieben are named at 0:18. Other than that, it appears in various not-HEMA related sources, such as Buch Weinsberg. The illustration at 0:41 comes from one of Talhoffers, namely MS Chart.A.558, fol. 29v.
      Take care!

    This looks dope. Wish I could do it without having to damage my yard

      Throw anything heavy, it is a wonderful exercise. Rocks and kettlebells spring (pardon the pun) to mind. The ultimate in not messing up your yard would probably be a sandbag. But I understand the historic desire to be authentic as possible.

      This is actually a very serious question - my yard is, luckily, in a rather wild state, so I saw no problem in messing up the grass. But throwing anything heavy WILL tear the ground and destroy any life on it.

      @@Sprechfenster I’m not rich so when I made my sandbag I bought an army surplus duffle bag that was heavy canvas. Picking up a used punching bag at a garage sale will work too. You could throw that on a sidewalk and not damage anything. UA-cam is your DIY friend.

      could possibly do something with a medicine ball attached to a post? it may not be perfect but it would be better than what's used in the video.
