Default Throwing a Guitar

I heard about a guitar-throwing contest on the radio - some kind of promotion.

How far do you think you could throw a guitar? What technique would you use?

I think I would use a one handed toss like a tennis swing. I think I could throw one at least 120 feet.

Thoughts?

You're greatly overestimating your ability to throw a guitar. I threw shotput and discus in high school and with a lot of training, my best discus throw was about 120 ft and a discus is considerably lighter than a guitar. I think that your best bet would be to utilize a hammer throw technique with both hands.

Im not a math guy but I am fairly certain 120 feet does not equal 90 yards

While that particular comment was pretty stupid, 30 yards is a much longer distance to throw something than people realize.

As am I. I completely thought you meant 90 feet. Either way, 40 yards is still much farther than you realize.
