Throwing Event Equipment

The Blazer Turned Iron Shot Put is a precision, machine-turned competition shot built for throwers who demand a perfectly balanced implement on meet day. Because it's turned rather than cast, the surface and weight are held to exacting tolerances — weight plus just 0.05 grams — so athletes get the true, consistent feel that develops repeatable technique and rewards a clean release. Color-coded by weight, it's easy to grab the right shot at a glance during practice and competition.

• Precision machine-turned for a perfectly balanced, true-rolling shot
• Tight weight tolerance: weight plus 0.05 grams
• Color-coded by weight: 4K (109mm, Women's) is orange, 12 lb (115mm, Boys) is green, 16 lb (128mm, College) is brown
• Competition-grade iron construction for outdoor training and meets

Coach's tip: match the shot weight to each athlete's competition class and use the color coding to keep the throwing area organized during group sessions. Wipe the iron dry after every use and store it indoors to prevent rust and preserve the balanced finish.

Data flag — not yet split into variants: Blazer's own real SKUs for this line are 1991 (4K), 1992 (12lb), and 1993 (16lb), none of which match this listing's current SKU (BL-GP-01000971). Which weight our existing SKU/cost/inventory record actually represents could not be confirmed, and only 1992's price ($75.30, via a reseller) was found — so no variants have been added yet to avoid misassigning the wrong weight to data that's already on file. Also corrected the 12lb color from "blue" to "green" per Blazer's own site. Needs a supplier invoice or Blazer dealer contact to resolve before this can be split safely.

The Blazer Core Discus is a reliable, program-ready discus for high school throwers moving from the practice ring toward competition.
