How To Play

Setup

  • Players aim to toss horseshoes onto a stake at the opposite end of the pitch.

  • Typically played with two players.

  • The game consists of multiple innings, with each player pitching two horseshoes in each inning.

  • Determine a point or shoe total to play towards (e.g., 40 points or 50 shoes per player).

  • Toss a coin to decide who pitches first in the first inning; winner chooses pitching order.

Gameplay

  • Pitch from either the left or right pitching area, maintaining the same side for both shoes in each inning.

  • Pitch both shoes within 30 seconds.

  • Aim for the stake underhandedly.

  • Score horseshoes after both players pitch.

  • Continue playing until a player reaches the decided point or ringer total or until both players pitch the agreed-upon number of shoes.

Scoring

  • Three points for a horseshoe landing as a ringer.

  • One point for horseshoes touching or leaning against the stake or landing within 6 inches.

  • The first player to reach the decided total wins the game.
