Pacific Ocean (Aug. 8, 1999) -- USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63) is seen head-on at high speed during transit to her homeport of Yokosuka, Japan. Kitty Hawk is returning home after completing a six-month deployment to the Arabian Gulf in support of Operation Southern Watch.
Buzkashi reminds of a kind of polo on horses. Instead of a ball, a goat carcass is used with the head + parts of the limbs cut off.
Weight 15-20kg or more.
2 teams, 5-10 persons each, have to lift the carcass from the ground or take it away from the opponents and bring it into the goal as many times as possible.
The length of the field from goal to goal is about 300-400 m, width 20-30 m. .
Opponents' horses must not be frightened, held, whipped or brought down.
Originally a preparation for future warriors.
