October 25, 200124 yr Hello, My name is Scott Gracia. I have been throwing knives and hawks for about 6 yrs and recently gave my first "workshop" on how to throw knives and 'hawks to my friends scout group. His 10yr old son has been a scout for a few years and he has been a "den leader" for about the same amount of time. Anyway, they loved it! I did a few demonstration throws and went over the basics about safety, how to hold the "throwers", release and follow through and then I let everyone come up one at a time and try it. There were 10 boys total and three parents. They all tried throwing the knives and they did great! Its a little intimidating at first, but once they a stuck one knife... you could see the spark in their eyes as their confidence grew. As long as a few safety guidelines are followed, the sport of recreational knife and tomahawk throwing is just as safe as archery. Professional throwing knives are not sharp at all, they just have a point on them. Its also a great way to spend time with your kids. Its exciting and new which is just what you need for a great hobby. Well, thats about it... I just wanted to spread the word a bit about this new sport/hobby and hopefully give a few people some ideas of fun things to do with their troop! If I can be of any help at all please feel free to email me anytime! I'm more than happy to help Best Regards Scott Gracia 101 FREE KNIFE THROWING TIPS
