[Sportsandrec] family yard sports

Julie:  How about horse shoes?  Maybe regular sized plastic  ones.  I am 
sure there is a way to make sound on the peg.  On metal we  have a person 
tapping the peg with a rod so we can hear where it is.   Google talking 
horseshoe pegs and see what you get.  John T.

Hi,

I've found what Justin mentioned to be very helpful over the  years. 
Sometimes playing on concrete with the frisby creates a little more  noise 
when it lands if you don't have the beeping one so you can find it.  With 
the 
bag on the ball it is possible to play goalie as well, just be  warned 
playing with teens on this one as they kick a lot harder than the  lil' 
ones.
