Oklahoma Horseshoe Pitchers Association

Being inducted into the Hall of Fame is the highest honor that can be bestowed within the Oklahoma Horseshoe Pitchers Association. It can only be achieved by those members who continually exhibit the highest levels of performance or services to the OHPA.

There are three ways for an individual to become qualified for consideration as a Hall of Fame member.

(1) through pitching skill and achievement

(2) through service to and promotion of the game of horseshoes

(3) through a combination of pitching achievements, service and promotion

All three systems will be based on pre-established, objective measurements and accomplishments (point system) to free the membership from personal bias, politics, religion and racial differences.

More detailed information on the point system can be found in the OHPA Bylaws.

Mike Deer is the 2019 inductee into the Oklahoma Horseshoe Pitchers Hall of Fame. Because of his many years of dedicated service to the association, which include (but are not limited to) serving as charter officer, starting several tournaments with at least a 5-year longevity, and providing indoor pitching opportunities during the winter months for many years, Mike has been inducted in the "Promotion" category of the HOF.
