Corner guards are key for a team to score two points in an end, because they can either draw around it later or hit and roll behind it, making the opposing team's shot to remove it more difficult.

During that time period, there was much debate in competitive curling circles as to which sweeping device was more effective: brush or broom. One such measure, known as "hog-to-hog" time, is the speed of the stone and is the time in seconds the rock takes from the moment it crosses the near hog line until it crosses the far hog line.

Eight points – all the rocks thrown by one team counting – is the highest score possible in an end, and is known as an " eight-ender" or "snowman". The match-winning combination of highly durable PVC posts and a professional HDPE goal net can be assembled in a matter of minutes.Since the sport's official addition in the 1998 Olympics, Canada has dominated the sport with their men's teams winning gold in 2006, 2010, and 2014, and silver in 1998 and 2002.
