Volgens een bekende sage hebben de bewoners van Oldeboorn gewedijverd met Tzum om de kerk met de hoogste toren. De Oldeboorners wilden de hoogste toren van Friesland hebben, wat betekende dat hun toren van de Doelhofkerk hoger moest worden dan die van Tzum. Daarom reisden twee mannen naar Tzum om te bepalen hoe hoog die toren precies was. Ze beklommen de toren en maten de hoogte met een touw. Daarna bleven ze in de plaatselijke herberg overnachten. Terwijl ze sliepen sneed de waardin een flink stuk van het touw af. Het uiteindelijke gevolg was dat de toren van Oldeboorn toch lager werd dan de toren van Tzum. De inwoners van Oldeboorn worden sindsdien tuorkemjitters (torenmeters) genoemd en die van Tzum lyntsjesnijers (lijntjesnijders).
