In New Zealand and parts of Australia, each axeman's individual handicap is recorded in performance books which are graded on how many events they win and how many events they enter. Championship events are scratch events with no handicap, and typically use larger diameter logs (375 mm). </p><p>Handicap events may use logs of 250 mm to 350 mm, depending on the skill of the competitors.
