PORT A PIT Competition Shot Put 4 kg — Grey one-size cast-iron, regulation weight for training

PORT A PIT Competition Shot Put, 4 kg is a durable, regulation-weight cast-iron shot designed for high-school competition and practice where dependable performance and low cost matter.

This 4 kg Competition Shot Put from PORT A PIT delivers the essentials: a regulation-weight implement with a straightforward cast-iron construction that stands up to repeated practice throws and meet use. It’s engineered for athletes and teams who need a reliable, affordable shot that meets standard specifications while offering a range of diameters so each thrower can find a comfortable grip and delivery feel.

How do I choose the right diameter for a 4 kg shot?

Selecting the correct diameter depends mainly on how the shot seats in the palm and how the fingers wrap along its side. Measure by checking that the shot rests on the callus pad of the palm and the fingers lie comfortably along the shot’s side during a throwing grip. Throwers with shorter fingers often prefer a smaller diameter for better control; those with longer fingers frequently find a larger diameter offers more contact and stability.

• Check that the shot rests on the pad (callus) of the palm at delivery.
• Try 2–3 diameters to let athletes compare feel and control.
• Smaller diameters suit shorter fingers; larger offer more push area for longer fingers.
• Coaches should keep multiple sizes for team fit and experimentation.
