    Probably that one.

    Though like all records, the distance recorded 'off the court' could be up to 2-3m out (2 chord court) - I think that all BIG casts should be staked and then measured back to the oche to establish the 'true' distance.

    Not taking anything away from Tel, that is a very long way when using a Spinner.

    Just my thoughts.
