Is this built to NHPA spec?

Yes — 40 ft pitch between stakes, 6 × 6 ft sand throwing beds at each end, stakes set at the regulation 3-inch lean.

What kind of sand do you use?

Soft, fine-grained sand that holds the shoe on landing instead of skipping. We avoid coarse construction sand for this reason.

What does a regulation horseshoe pit cost?

Typical builds with hardwood timber edging, walking path, and ambient lighting range from $5K to $15K.

Can you add lighting for evening play?

Yes — string lights on cedar posts or low landscape spots. We rough power in during construction.

About this court type

A regulation horseshoe pit is a 40-ft pitch with a sand throwing bed at each end — not loose dirt, not gravel. We build to NHPA spec: 6 × 6 ft beds with proper depth, hardwood timber edging, regulation steel stakes set to the right angle, and a walking path between the pits.
