Thanks guys, and guyettes !
I did not get a chance to video the events due to Nancy not able to attend, but I am sure someone did get a clip of it. If I can find it I will send it to someone to put it up.
Tony, it was not a katana, it was Dahn Guhm (short sword).
I want to get into Too Guhm Sool (throwing knives). This has always fascinated me.
Next, will be Ssahng Dahn Bong (double short sticks). Talking about the usage of crowbars, Animal! ;D

throwing knives are awesome. Thank God I live in Vermont. Seems like it's the only state in the northeast that allows them.

I Love Vermont. Most of the time, I dislike snow though.  |

Congrats Allen! That must have took intense concentration and stamina to stay so consistant through all those events! Were they all in one day?!
If you get Jim B the video I am sure he can get it up on the Competitors corner for you! I would love to see it!

Tony did you know that Rick Zumwalt (Bull Hurley from Over the Top) was a knife throwing champion?

Chris I don't think anyone has the sword form on film, but may have for the techniques and sparring. Yes, the event ran all day (12+ hours) with over 300 competitors (not the biggest, but it was a great turnout). I didn't eat much throughout the day, so that affected my endurance with the fighting.  See you in a week? |

I'm going to be ordering some throwing knives soon, and it's a great time for me to do so. My parents are digging up my wooden fence in my back yard this summer and putting in a metal chain fence. Now I have all the targets I want for throwing knives and shooting my Bow. |
