Anvil Shooting - Major County Threshing Bee

I had no idea that anvil shooting is a competitive sport. And I found out that shooting an anvil was used as a form of communication. Now you have an opportunity to learn as much as I did while attending this heritage festival in Oklahoma. #Anvil #LivingHistory #AmericanHeartlands #HeritageFestival #majorcountyhistoricalsociety
The annual Threshing Bee & Two-Cylinder Tractor Show is held in Fairview, Oklahoma, and is hosted by the Major County Historical Society in September. The demonstrations and exhibits feature the machinery that transformed American farm production from intensive human and animal labor to the harnessing of steam and petroleum power.

What kinds of unusual competitive sports events are held in your community?

Chuck wagon cooking contests in Amarillo, Clarendon, and Lubbock. A Texas tradition!

Anyone know how to get in touch with the Kansas Anvil Shooters? I’m also an anvil shooter.

I have my great grandfather's anvil it will hand down to a Karnes some day.
