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.

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

Scammed Crypto Asset Recovery Solution Hire iFORCE HACKER RECOVERY
When I traded online, I lost both my investment money and the anticipated gains. Before permitting any withdrawals, the site kept requesting more money, and soon I recognized I had been duped. It was really hard to deal with the loss after their customer service ceased responding. I saw a Facebook testimonial about how iForce Hacker Recovery assisted a victim of fraud in getting back the bitcoin she had transferred to con artists. I contacted iForce Hacker Recovery, submitted all relevant case paperwork, and meticulously followed the guidelines. I’m relieved that I was eventually able to get my money back, including the gains that were initially displayed on my account. I’m sharing my story to let others who have been conned know that you can recover your money.
