So, I swung by the hardware store tonight to scope out wood for a new set. My Brio set is getting a bit worn and the batons are pretty nasty now. So, they only have 1 1/4" diameter dowel which i a bit too small...any thoughts on what I can do with this? Just go with smaller dowel?? […]

OHC kubb cup OHC Kubb Team organiseerde voor het 5de jaar op rij hun kubb tornooi. De tweevoudig Belgisch kampioen besloot er dan ook een feest editie van te maken en gaf daarom om het uur prachtige prijzen weg. Na onze sterke prestatie vorig jaar konden we deze feest editie zeker niet overslaan. Doelstelling was een plaats in de top 5 aangezien de concurren […]

Het eerste grote kubb tornooi van het jaar voor alle west-vlaamse kubb ploegen is natuurlijk het West-vlaams kampioenschap. De zon was al van 's ochtends vroeg paraat en enkel een strakke wind kon nog roet in het eten gooien. Met 7 personen trokken we om 8u30 vanuit Nieuwenhove naar het Wevelgem waar de grasmat ons al aan het opwachten was.   De hoofden […]

This discussion is an extension of the Ask.PlanetKubb.com question posed by Albert62, Is there any advantage for a team starting the game?. The general consensus seems to be that the opening team does have some benefit. What is the benefit? and How much of a benefit is it? […]

This is exactly what I'd recommend - "Slap & Slide." Still give it some spin to stabilize it in flight, but rather than throwing it nose-down and trying to dig a corner the goal is to land flat on one face about half a meter shy of the group and slide gently into it. This is Grant Scott's go-to throw and he is able to use it to great […]

I can speak to the US National Rules that a punishment must be at least 1 baton length from the marking pins and the king. There may be other rulesets that disallow placing a punishment on the baseline. […]

The data on turn 2s above continues to support Hodges theory. Amazing! […]

high level rule of thumb I like: place the penalty kubb far enough away from all other kubbs so it requires at least 1 baton just for itself. For example - 1 meter in from the opposite back corner of all the field kubbs, or on 1m from the bakc on teh sideline. Beyond that I agree with Dobbie - you should have a sense of the team's 'blind spots […]

My next team name is going to be "Censored" Also, Censorface paints a worse picture that Sukface. Funny […]

I've played Kubb with people who keep a very strict order to who can throw when, but the rules you'd play with in the largest tournaments don't force you to keep track of that. If a player on the team has batons to throw, they can throw them. Some teams will strategize around this and have certain players who "specialize" in King sho […]
