What is outhurling?

Answer 1

its a Devon sport called 'outhurling' which was played in some regions until the twentieth century (e.g. 1922, at Great Torrington). Devon is a large county in South West England, bordering on Cornwall to the west, Dorset and Somerset to the east. Devon is unique among English counties, in that it has two non-contiguous Coastlines. Both parts of the Devon coastline are part of the South West Coast Path.

Devon has been home to a number of customs, such as its own form of Wrestling. As recently as the 19th century, a crowd of 17,000 at Devonport, near Plymouth, attended a match between the champions of Devon and Cornwall. Other ancient customs which survive include Dartmoor step dancing, and 'Crying The Neck'.

anyway i think it is a sport like the diskus throw.The discus throw is an event in Track and Field competition, in which an athlete throws a heavy disc - called a discus - in an attempt to mark a farther distance than his or her competitors.
