Pole tossed in Scottish games (5)

I believe the answer is:

caber

(Other definitions for caber that I've seen before include "Item tossed in Highland sport" , "One Highlanders toss" , "that's elevated at 8 [HIGHLAND GAMES]" , "One taking a toss" , "It's tossed in Scotland" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
