I never win either lol. Stupid game.
I used to play croquet a lot as a kid. I liked that one Cos I was good at it too:) or at least better at it than horse shoes game.
Maybe it would just be easier to throw the whole horse at the pit than dealing with getting his shoes off.
I never win now either even though we did have horse shoe pits at the back of our property when I was a kid growing up, but I don’t really remember playing it much as a kid. I think it was more for the adults. I do have a vivid memory of being however old you are between the age of grade three and four summer and I was mowing the lawn on the riding mower and got one of the wheels stuck inside the horse shoe pit. I just stayed there screaming until finally my mom’s boyfriend heard me from the house and he came out and just shut the mower off. Felt dumb that I didn’t think to do that and just say there screaming thinking I was stuck lol.
I have not idea the count of games played or games won.
We used have a river lot. And we were there every weekend for 2 yrs. Played horseshoes every evening. Yes I did win some.
Also played every time we when camping when we did not have the river lot.
So who knows.
