Description: This style of steel Quoits is popular in the Central potions of New Jersey, especially in and around the Trenton area. These quoits are larger in diameter, but much thinner and lighter than the standard North American Quoit. These quoits more resemble the ancient Chakrum featured in the history section of this site. They are 7 1/2 inches in diameter with an almost 5 inch hole, and weigh 2 1/2 pounds each, making them very similar in size and weight to an iron pitching Horseshoe. The much larger inside hole, which itself is nearly as large as an entire Traditional American Quoit, together with the 21 foot pitching distance, would seem to make Trenton Quoits relatively easy to score ringers with. The lighter weight would also make this game somewhat more favorable for women and younger teens to play, as opposed to the heavier and more dangerous 4-pound Traditional Quoits.
