Like max said. Let's have a 154-198. Or 176-220. God forbid!!!.....we'd have to bring 2 tons of cheese for that "whine"......... I mean last year I was 250 and pulled 450 lb Blake Perry....thats 200 lbs. difference!!!!

And even has a win over him if i remember correctly. that was at his own novice tournament. honestly, what do you think it would do to a his chances of winning a national title if the class was 154-198? and no disrespect intended, i know David and he is a great AWer and a cool dude, but i think even he would agree that giving up the extra weight would make it much more difficult. and i know there are lots of examples of, "so and so beats heavier guys all the time.....and blah blah blah." but that is the exeption and not the rule. there are always the elite in any class, and again, i dont want any change in weight classes cus i dont care.....and im sure there are some out there like me that could also care less, but i still feel that if the shoe was on the lighter mans foot they would be singin a different tune. if you still disagree, lets have some tournament where ALL the classes are 44 pound differentials, complaining or not, the results would speak for themselves.

I mean last year I was 250 and pulled 450 lb Blake Perry....thats 200 lbs. difference!!!! Max, Thats the only reason i even brought daves match up... By ALL MEANS Im not sayin whats wrong or right or should happen, im only a novice myself, so im just learning & throwin my opinion in there. In NO WAY am i tryin to disrespect anyone. . That said, i agree it is a diff monster when ur chasing a national title. Usually i assume the weight classes are known BEFORE the qualifying tournaments or at nationals, whether it be 11lb diff classes or 30lb diff classes, if the class weights are predetermined then we already know it be best to come in at the top side of the class & have time to get it done. I hope i explained that well enuf to portray my thoughts. I look up to all of you guys because yall are where i want to be one day. So im tryin to soak up as much as i can now.

Not sure if Andrew is going to be pulling. he had a 4 wheeler wreck last night and has messed something up in his back. they didn't find anything in xrays but you can feel something pop out in his back every time he breaths it is awful. I am still going to come pull though

You guys want to talk about 40lb differences, if you want to be real about it do a tournament where the wieght classes are a percentage apart rather than a number apart. Just because there isn't a 220 lb class you arent going to pull in it??? So if pullers that you have never beat enter the tourny and there was a 220 class are you not going to enter cause you cant beat them??? A real AWer won't back down from a challenge, if anything it should push them harder!!! Keep Pullin!!!!
