AVAILABLE NOW! Official USQA Quoit Sets PLEASE SEE ORDERING INFORMATION AT BOTTOM OF PAGE.
The Official Quoits of the United States Quoiting Association are now available for purchase by the general public. Buy them here on usqa.org - not available anywhere else! This regulation set of 4 steel quoits, each weighing 4 pounds, are hand-crafted in "Pennsylvania Dutch Country," the scenic Amish farmlands of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. These quoits are made exclusively for the USQA using foundry casting molds custom-designed by the USQA . This is the same quoit used at all of the USQA-sanctioned quoit tournaments held in Eastern Pennsylvania. A limited supply of these quoits have been previously sold at past USQA quoiting events, but only now have they become available in quantity, right from this website, for ALL quoiting enthusiasts across America!
While you are ordering USQA Quoit sets for your own pits, you may want to think about picking up a few extra sets for your friends - a very thoughtful gift which hopefully will get them started in a unique and challenging sport as well. Remember, you'll need a partner and some opponents to pitch against to make Quoits fun and exciting, so it's definitely to your advantage to get all your friends involved, too! |

| Why Buy USQA Quoits Over Other Quoits? | |
|
A lot of time and research went into the design of these quoits before the actual molds were created, which we feel has resulted in the creation of the best pitching quoits you can buy. You'll definitely appreciate the thick, chunky feel these quoits have when hefted in your hand. They have been specifically designed for ease of pitching by incorporating well-rounded edges throughout the overall design - on both the outside and inside edges, the large gently-curved finger groove, as well as the major top and bottom surfaces. Many cheaper quality quoits are cast in a flatter and wider shape that doesn't fit the hand as well, and many have thinner, sharper, or more prominent outer edges that tend to chip off more readily with use. All this leads to a less comfortable feel and making them more difficult to pitch accurately. Our design eliminates these sharp edges, which helps minimize chipping and wear and results in a more desirable quoiting experience.
If your future plans are to compete in a USQA-sanctioned Quoit tournament, practicing with our regulation USQA quoits will best prepare you for the toughest of competitions. You will feel right at home at all the tournaments when pitching with quoits identical to the ones you practice with at home. You won't have to worry about wasting pitches "getting used to" a strange set of quoits you've never pitched before, so you can better concentrate on winning the game instead, right from the get-go.
Or, you may want to own our regulation quoits just to conform to official, national standards set by the USQA. When practicing with these quoits, you may even feel like you can "pitch like all the Pros" at the USQA. Whatever your desire or ultimate goal, these quoits will not disappoint you! |

Each regulation set of USQA Quoits includes 4 foundry-cast steel quoits in perfect proportion to the historical Traditional American Quoit. Each quoit weighs 4 pounds and is approximately 6 1/2 inches in diameter, has a 3-inch diameter hole, and stands 1 inch high. The quoits feature a large, concave finger groove along their outer edge to assist in pitching accuracy. The high, rounded top surface of each quoit features a large raised-letter "A" or "B" and smaller raised lettering "USQA" directly opposite the central hole. The two "A" quoits are painted glossy Yellow, and the two "B" Quoits are glossy Black. |
|
The
underside of each USQA Quoit is inscribed with the official weight along
with the name and website address of the USQA. |
|
The bottom
surface is not flat like some styles of quoits, but are concave
and smoothly curved such that they slide off your fingers uniformly
every time they are pitched. The underside does NOT have the severely scooped
out "Half-round rain gutter" groove that is common in the design of many
inferior quoits, such as the underside of the one shown at right.
This well-worn quoit illustrates both the rain-gutter design of the
underside surface and the large chips along the outer edges. Does
this look like a pleasurable object to pitch with all day at a large cash
payout Quoit tournament?As seen above, in order to validate the authenticity of each USQA quoits, small recessed lettering has been added to the bottom of the quoit which reads: "OFFICIAL 4 LB. QUOIT UNITED STATES QUOITING ASSOCIATION WWW.USQA.ORG" |
