My wife and I recently bought our first home and there is a very nice piece of ground out back for an outdoor training area... can anyone give me some specific instructions on how to construct and use a good outdoor makiwara???
Any help would be apreciated...

Not a problem.

Here is a link to another design I have been trying out. Not quite traditional, but seems to work well from my limited experiments.
