Experiencing Cow Chip Toss First Hand

Identifying a freshly dumped pattie
Chatham Cow Chipping Competition was long over when I visited my brother at his town of Chatham.  As I promised, here are some times that I enjoyed and shared with my brother Don. Do not expect any great thoughts.

You cannot make any of this up. Good times were had by all.

I was active in finding and scooping up the patty.

Notice that the patty is the size of a toilet seat.

Checking product for correct dry and texture
Considering aerodynamic and wind direction.
Disappointment at the failed toss. It went about
7 to 9 feet. Oh, well. Next year.


The patty now lies in my yard. It will disintegrate
in time.  

 My brother Don contacted his friend Gene, who cleared the field of cows for our adventure. The field was loaded with products. We had much product from which to choose.

Don spent a lot of time on farms over his 72
years. He is so much fun to share our
stories and memories.
He also possesses so much knowledge about
livestock and farm life.
