The Champion Sports Indoor/Outdoor Horseshoes are a good source of fun for the nonprofessional. They are an excellent weight for younger children to use and are pretty sturdy for a child's set. With a little room and some not too wild throwing, they are good for inside play. Inside, there has been no problem with keeping the pin anchored in the rubber mat from tipping over. The stake for outside use could be a little heavier duty for tough ground situations.They are excellent for taking on camping trips since they are lighter weight than the metal ones. They also take up very little room. Both the adults and children find them to be a lot of fun.
