Must be inspected and weighed before launch by pitt boss. (hint- white “Lumina” pumpkins hold up the best)

6. 3 shots per team

7. Pumpkins must remain intact until landing to qualify. One extra re-do shot is given for one “pie” pumpkin that launches by mistake per team. (pie pumpkins are those that blow apart in the air after launching)

8. Air horn will be blown before launch and area cleared except for launcher.

9. Spotters in field will mark landings

The winner will have their name engraved on the trophy that is kept in the tasting room, and will have their photo on the face page of the website, as well as on the wall in the sweet clover room. In addition, the winner will receive a certificate for a full case of wine of their choice, valued at over $200.
