There will be a 10' wide x 100' long lane the bag must land within to earn points. Distance will be measured from Mat to the front of where the bag lands. If the athlete throws the bag out of the Lane they will receive 0 points. If athlete steps off the mat they will also receive 0 points. Farthest throw within the lane will win. Athletes may chose to throw in any style they choose ( single hand, two hand, overhead etc. )  Only the athletes hand may be on the handle,  No other equipment restriction.

The weight for all athletes will be the same but the handle thickness will get thicker for the heavier weight classes. It will start at 1in diameter for Women's divisions and work up to a 2" handle for SHW men.  Athlete will then hold implements for max time.
