Nevada State Horseshoe Pitching Association back in action

The Nevada State Horseshoe Pitching Association returned to action after a few-week hiatus following the National Horseshoe Pitching Association World Tournament in Sandy, Utah last month.

Getting away a bit from the summer heat with temperatures in the mid-90’s with a slight cool breeze, the Vegas Fall Fling was held on Sept. 6 at Justice Myron E. Leavitt Family Park in Las Vegas.

With 15 pitchers making up three different classes, Class C featured a handicap with each class pitching 50 shoes each.

With a playoff in Class B between Scott Hardy and Dale Dalby’s three wins-one loss equal record, the two battled with Hardy ultimately outpitching Dalby 19 to 14 ringers to win first in Class B.

The winner of the 50/50 was Dan Dunn from Summerlin who took home $40 in winnings.
