To huck

So, I was about to type "Kaidoh thought about hucking a tennis ball at it". But then I wondered if "to huck", meaning "to throw", is one of those terms that was only used in Saskatchewan and it would be like writing "Draco stuck his hands in the pocket of his bunnyhug to warm them up since Ron wasn't around to hold them." (A bunnyhug being a hooded sweatshirt with a front pocket.)

Do you or have you used the verb "to huck"? Are you from somewhere other than the Canadian prairies? Do you have any strange local terms in your vocab that make other people stare at you blankly?
