I saw this pit of sand one time at a resort and thought it was just a stretch of sand for you to throw the metal ball as far as you can... And that I did. LMFAO.
Jon Sm And better memorize EXACTLY where your own ball falls. Sounds about as exciting as dart throwing. Won't be long before someone is hurt (could be used as weapon).
Balls have a distinctive carved pattern in order for the players to recognize theirs; And it has been used as a weapon not 6 months ago when a guy tried to perform a terror attack in Paris and was put down by nearby players using his head as a target. www.lci.fr/faits-divers/paris-xix-canal-ourcq-il-a-pris-quatre-a-cinq-boules-de-petanque-sur-la-tete-des-riverains-racontent-comment-ils-ont-desarme-l-agresseur-au-couteau-2097958.html
Sweet, I used to play Petanque in club (as well as Handball, and Football what you also call soccer) until my early 20. This is a great game. It needs concentration, tactic sense, and bring some fun (also when you discuss, and desagree about points, that you have finally to measure the distance from cochonnet ). Nice to see some american play Petanque. THere is just one thing missing in your tutorial video: where is Pastis? ;-)
Sometimes.... depends on how much you consider heavy. Then again, child's petanque boules are rather lightweight. If you stand behind someone about to throw the petanque ball and they hit you, though... that does hurt.
Similar, but with subtile differences, for example the goal is a small ball, wich can (voluntarily or not) be hit and moved during the game, and the fact that you play in 3D. and thus, can't have the goal blocked by a ball in front of it.
hye there...i got pentaque matches tomorrow....watch this vid to get a extra knowledge on how to play pentaque n throw the ball precisely...wish for my luck ok!! XD
You couldn't come up with quality you can actually see? This is truly an awesome example of the worst practices.... And yeah... Huh? you play how?... What?
If you can't handle balls of steel, play with your plastic bocce balls on your manicured lawn, it is nice start. After a few years you might learn enough to play Petanque. Until then just stay with your rolling game, it is complex enough for some.
This is a great example of how to play this sport, perfect for showing my French students how this is played. Thank you!
I truly was excited and captivated by this video
This video makes me miss the 80s
Thank you for that explanation. Discovered this after seeing a Google Doodle about this game.
based as shit
--My set is on the way from Amazon! I think it would be nice to play at our park's pavilion or on the lawn..lookin forward to it!
Marbles adult version?

What do people do with the circle that they draw in the sand? Please reply. I didn't hear.
You shoot from there
I play at the Los Angeles club and we have good courts it's at rancho park come along we have equipment to share
this explanation is horrible. I know less now than before watching this
Wikipedia explains it very well en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C3%A9tanque#Playing_the_game
is petanque similar to curling? just no ice or brooms?
Similar, but with subtile differences, for example the goal is a small ball, wich can (voluntarily or not) be hit and moved during the game, and the fact that you play in 3D. and thus, can't have the goal blocked by a ball in front of it.
I think I am a professional now after watching this... but I need new clothes.
Here because of the Apple store phone smashing.

Much like darts or poker. A sport for average joes.
hye there...i got pentaque matches tomorrow....watch this vid to get a extra knowledge on how to play pentaque n throw the ball precisely...wish for my luck ok!! XD
