When I first started throwing, I struggled greatly with the caber, and that’s no exaggeration. Just ask some of my fellow HASA members and they’ll tell you.. So, I did what any newbie would do - I turned to YouTube. Through my rigorous research, one man kept coming up as a dude who crushed monster cabers; legend was that there wasn't a caber this guy couldn't turn. Mike Smith is this man's name, and I quickly decided that if I want to be even pedestrian at this event (it took me five games before I even turned my first one), I had better replicate what this man was doing. His "pick" was pretty standard, but it was his carry that set him apart. Mike Smith would carry the stick so high, it was almost at shoulder level, it seemed. In each instance I saw, he made a conscience effort to get the caber positioned higher. I'm no smart man, but I did the math:
Dude turns more monster cabers than anyone
+
No one carries it like him

Worth trying
Now, before I describe a caber carry or even defend it, know that I'm not saying there aren't plenty of different, and successful, ways to carry a caber. I'm just explaining how I do it and how I coach it.
We've already gone over the "pick" so let's jump into the carry. Once you've gathered yourself after catching this huge toothpick, work your hands up to chest level. So, what you have now is you're holding the caber with your elbows bent and the stick tucked in tight against your neck and shoulder. It doesn't matter what side you carry the caber on (I throw right-handed but carry the caber on my left side), just that you're comfortable with the caber and feel as if you can somewhat control it … yeah, I know, I know..
I like to carry it high for a few reasons:
Less Drop - When I'm about to pull the caber and flip it, the "drop" of that caber is critical. If you jump stop your approach (don't, by the way, but again, more on that later), you're fighting yourself. The lower my carry is, the longer pull I have at the finish, and the more momentum I have to fit as I pull that stick all the way up. With a high carry, I can more easily hit that explosive finish position I want, without having to drop down in the basement to gather for a big turn.
Tight Shoulder - I want to feel in control of the caber. The higher I hold it and the tighter it is against my chest, shoulder and neck, the more control I feel that I have on it. I can pull it in closer to my body as needed for counter-balance and more easily give it a final "nudge" when it's time to pull it (more on that in another section). This all leads me to the last reason ...
Drive the Caber - I think a lot of people make the mistake of a simple mindset; don’t just run with the caber, drive it! With a high carry, I can really drive the caber - kind of like a football sled. You cannot carry a sled and run, you have to drive it forward – let’s do the same with a caber. I even go to the extreme of keeping my head down during the entire "drive" phase. In my thought process, if I can apply forward force to the caber, then I am speeding up the top end of the stick, making it that much more likely to turn.
And if you've not Googled Mike Smith by now, I've done you the favor of linking one of my all-time favorite caber tosses.
Carry on.

My first error was believing that investing in cryptocurrency would increase my income. I got conned out of $120,000 in bitcoin by a well known investment scam. A few weeks later, I was looking through my email when I saw a notification about a recovery agent named Wizard James Recovery who could help me get my bitcoin back in a few hours. I was initially apprehensive but I eventually got in touch with them, and within 48 hours, he was able to get back all of my lost bitcoin. They are the greatest bitcoin/funds recovery team around, thus you should get in touch with them right away if you experience any such problems. Contact information.. Wizardjamesrecovery@ usa.com.

As a player, I was drawn into the appealing realm of endless winnings with crypto casinos, enticed by the prospect of transparent and equitable gaming. With a blend of enthusiasm and hope, I invested $9,000 in a heavily advertised cryptocurrency casino, eager to experience the excitement of online gambling. Initially, the experience was thrilling. I experienced significant wins, relishing the surge of adrenaline that accompanied each bet and spin. The platform’s polished interface and blockchain-supported fairness features appeared to validate its authenticity, increasing my faith in the system. For a period, everything seemed above board. I had even successfully withdrawn funds, which further strengthened my confidence in the platform. However, on one occasion, when I attempted a larger withdrawal, the system began to display ambiguous error messages. I repeated the process with the same outcome. Perplexed, I contacted the support team. I was confronted with requests for excessive and seemingly unwarranted verification. The support team demanded additional documentation, referencing vague policies and unspecified security concerns. Their replies seemed evasive, and as time passed, my funds remained inaccessible. A growÅing feeling of unease and betrayal began to take hold. Determined not to become another silent victim, I sought assistance. That’s when I found DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT, a team specializing in auditing crypto casinos and recovering funds for players defrauded by unscrupulous platforms. They performed a thorough audit of the casino’s smart contract, and their findings were astonishing. The contract was programmed to block withdrawals once players reached a specific profit level surreptitiously. It was a concealed trap that contradicted the casino’s claims of fairness. DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT initiated an investigation and successfully located the individuals responsible for the operation. Their tenacity and expertise were invaluable. Ultimately, I was able to recover $48,500 of my initial deposit, a result I had almost abandoned hope of achieving. My experience served as a valuable lesson. The crypto gaming sector is fraught with hidden dangers, and not every platform is as trustworthy as it presents itself to be. Thorough research is essential, and seeking support from DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT is advisable if you encounter Cryptocurrency Fraud.
