used to throw a 12 pound one around 37 ft or so in high school if my memory serves me
I was the 8th grade city champion discus thrower and could put the shot about as far as the guys that were "shot putters"

With no practice, probably 15-18 ft.

I have a feeling I would be sorely disappointed in my result.

I'll try and report back. I'm guessing 15 feet, if I'm being optimistic.

That was soph year. If I tried throwing a 16 lb one now I'd probably throw it 10 feet and tear a muscle
More like tear a muscle picking it up and fall over 10 feet.

Remember how many we have who could easily throw an NFL football 60+ yards? Farther than many NFL quarterbacks threw in the QB long distance challenge?
My favorite was how many couch potato guys who said they can throw 80-85

I can do that while laying on my couch

Could barely put it 40' in high school. It would make better use as a bocci ball today.

My daughter is 15.5 pounds and I can throw her across the room.
So about that far
