Highland Games Basics: 1-2 Drill
When I was a freshman in college I had a great throws coach who quickly identified a few problems in my shot put approach; like most all 18 year olds, I had bad habits as well as things I did naturally that needed work. I think that’s an important aspect of throwing we often overlook – what we call “bad habits” may just be natural dispositions toward throwing that event. Some of us are made to be big putters while others are made to chuck massive hammer craters. To me, that’s the beauty of the heavy events – you don’t need to be, neither should you be, a gold medalist in only one event.
So, now that I’ve bored you with some random soapbox rant about the complexity of the heavy events, let’s roll right into this “1-2 Drill” for the Open Stone.
The “1-2 Drill” is something my coach, Shylo Eaton, used to have me drill over and over again. It serves a few purposes, but for me, it largely helped me finish my push into the shot (stone). I have always struggled with throwing the stone out to the extreme right side. For me, I have to do this drill each and every time I practice the stone. So, let me break it down for you:
- Put your feet wider than shoulder width (how wide that is, is up to you, but you don’t want a narrow base).
- Your left foot (right foot if you’re left handed) should be slightly behind your right foot. Hear me out, as I know this can seem confusing. If you were to put a yard stick (um, a meter stick if you use the metric system?), your left foot would be out of line of the right foot. Think of it this way – your left foot toes should be closely in line with your right heel.
- With the stone on your neck, lean over your right leg and foot. Keep your left arm nice a loose, as it will hang down.
- Be sure and keep your weight over your right foot, while keeping your right heel off the ground. That’s right - your heel off the ground. Don’t worry, this will be tough.
- With your upper body still facing back, your left arm down and loose, your right heel off the ground, turn your right foot toward the landing area. This is “1.” Audible cues help me, so this is that audible “1” that Shylo used to bark out to me all the time.
- Here’s the kicker; now that you’re in that position. Hold yet. Yep. Hold it. It will take a few times for you to get the balance, but force yourself to stay in it. Target a solid three second hold.
- After “1,” comes … “2!” Great guess! Your elementary teachers would be so proud (or, Mom, for your homeschoolers). “2” is the throw. This throw isn’t going to be far. Trust me. The key here is to finish the push on the stone, throwing it to the left-center of the landing area (sector). DO NOT REVERSE YOUR FEET. This is a mistake that many throwers make. The reverse should largely be a product of the throw; that if you don’t reverse your feet you’ll foul your throw. On this drill, you’re focusing on a hard right foot turn, a long and strong push on the stone all the way through it and to the left side and a powerful left side block (without a reverse)!
And, because I know we would much rather watch videos than read, I posted a video about this drill a while back. For some of my fellow Cliff Notes aficionados, you’ll enjoy this.

Lynne Kannuan
I want to write this testimony regarding The Great Odunga who made me win $1 million Dollars in the 2024 lottery on Aug. 5. My name is Lynne Kannuan and I am from Laos, Iowa, USA. I won this Powerball lottery in Webster City, US and I am not much of a lottery player because I don’t check my lottery ticket until about a week or two and Chief Dr. Odunga changed my life both for family and friends. I will put his email first for those who comprehend my write up to contact Great Odunga to win the lottery at his email odungaspelltemple@gmail.com for he is a real spell caster. I won the lottery of $1 million USD and to the press my comment was “Not too much, Not too little, just right”. I contacted Great Odunga through my friend who first contacted him to help her get her fertility issues solved and she is now a mother of twins boys for over 2 years but truth be told, I never believed the lottery can be won through spells until now. She told me to contact Great Odunga to help me win the lottery through spells and I did. To my surprise a week later, I had won the Powerball of $1,000,000 USD. The winning numbers in the Aug. 5 Powerball drawings were: 29-42-44-51-54 and Powerball 12. It’s a great achievement to me and I must post this testimony to recommend the Great Odunga to everyone who reads my write up. It was my friend who called me to check my ticket to realize I had won the Powerball Lottery. I am grateful to God to be a recent lottery winner with my name on the Powerball blog. You should contact Chief Dr. Odunga Email: odungaspelltemple@gmail.com OR and also Whats-App message him on +2348167159012
