Is there a Tomahawk throw world record?

[TheMartialWay]

Does anyone know what the farthest recorded distance of a 'hawk throw is?

Andy, check your email. I made up that mpeg and sent it to you.

...already got it and will hopefully have it uploaded to Hawk Talk, at www.americantomahawk.com tonight.

Bobby has been contacted by Guiness Book many times and can probably answer this question.

I think 48 feet is the world record

Seriously, I do not know of a world record for the Tomahawk throw. Sticking it from a greater distance is usually not a problem, but putting it in a prescribed bullseye, and hitting it consistantly proves to be the challenge. When you stick it in front of witnesses makes it a true record We make the bullseye larger for distance events. You may want to come to our next AKTA event and set one. Then you will be the man to beat. We already have a long distance knife champ.
ATC may hold a strictly Hawk contest later this year.
