Let's clear up a little terminology, first. "Shot" means a round ball of lead, steel, or some other metal. SHOT guns use small BB sized shot. A cannon may use a 6" or 8" shot that is fired at an enemy.

In Track and Field, there also is a 'shot' which is 'put' as far as the competitor can.

So,a boy's 'shot' may be around 1kg, depending.

The "Shot Put" is the name of the Field event, not the round, heavy thingie.

Now, get out there and Put the Shot a long distance for your team!!!
