\u201cThis year, 21 mowers from Serbia and the region competed in the official contest, while around 60 participants took part in the exhibition event. For the fifth time, the winner of the Rajac Mowing Competition is young Vuk Vu\u010dkovi\u0107 from Preljina near \u010ca\u010dak, who has once again earned the traditional Golden Scythe<\/strong> award.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Vuk first picked up a scythe before the age of seven alongside his father and uncle and quickly fell in love with the traditional craft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI know my peers may have more modern and unusual hobbies, but for me, mowing by hand is number one. Every muscle in your body works\u2014it’s better than any gym. When I was little, people told me I had a natural talent, so I never gave up. My father taught me the first movements, and after that I gained experience through practice,\u201d Vuk told RINA.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n His dedication paid off when, at the age of 19, he became the youngest winner in the history of the Rajac Mowing Competition. This year, he successfully defended the title for the fifth consecutive time. He says that the key to a championship-winning cut is not only a high-quality tool, but also physical strength and proper technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cA good-quality scythe is the most important thing\u2014it has to be properly sharpened. The first swing is crucial. You step forward with your right foot, then generate the motion partly from your hips and partly from your shoulders. Most of the cutting should be done with the middle section of the blade, not the tip,\u201d the young champion revealed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n At this year’s Rajac Mowing Competition, second place went to Mladen Tomi\u0107 of Mrkonji\u0107 Grad, while Mirko Kecman of Bosanski Petrovac finished third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n COURT ORDERED DETENTION FOR ALEKSANDAR RADI\u0106: Military analyst who spoke about sound cannon on the run outside the country!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n IN SMEDEREVO LIKE AFTER AN APOCALYPSE: City under water after the storm, building roof collapsed, cars damaged!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n DECLARATION THAT CHANGED THE HISTORY OF THE BALKANS: Here is how the creation of the joint state of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes began on Corfu!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n SPAIN IS THE NEW WORLD CHAMPION: Red Fury brought down Messi and company in extra time, historic final in New York!
