FL RIGHT HAND: CHUCK WESTBERRY LEFT HAND: KARL STANLEY / DANIAL WORLEY TIED: ACTIVE PULLERS, T/K I'd have to disagree and say Dana Gaines. Also, just for the record, the most powerful right arm that ever lived in Florida is Bobby Hopkins.

Bobby hasn't pulled in tourney in how long?..... I posted Active pullers, no disrespect or disagreement.... LoL Those guys are fantastic pullers. TK

Minnesota is obviously Richard Lupkes right handed by miles, lefty he is also #1. He won MN States last year left handed (as well as right) in the supers class and overall... Tony Kitowski (WI) took 2nd in the overall (which was run as top 3 from each class in bracketed double-elimination format). Marty O'Neil (previously ranked first lefty) didn't even pull Rich... he lost to Tony and Shawn Brock, and Marty hasn't been training lately unless you count 2 practices he went to last year. In practice (which doesn't count I know) I have beaten every armwrestler in MN besides Rich, who I practiced with once, and I couldn't do anything with his left. Just some info. SD - Chris Josten right and left I agree with this, although you haven't beaten Sonny yet, I think you would now, but I only saw you pull one tourney so far in the last 2 years (Riverboat Days) so it's hard to say. Also for North Dakota, I would have thought Myron Schmidt was the best righty, does anybody know who wins between Myron and Eric Gunsch? Edit: A quick google search shows Myron won the ND State Overall in 2003 and 2005 and Eric was there, but that was a long time ago and overalls probably don't/shouldn't count for anything unless you know how tired each puller was from the tourney. Also I'm not really sure who Derin Bauer is, when is the last time he competed? Roland will take the left hand title very soon. Edit: The only thing I found for Darin Bauer was from 2009 ND States where Darin beat Tim Lewis but placed 2nd to Trapper. Roland also beat Tim at the Riverboat Days last yr. I don't think he can beat Trapper yet... probably not even the 2009 version of Trapper. So I guess I'm not sure who would win between Darin and Roland, but has Darin been active?

LoL Those guys are fantastic pullers. TK No argument here. Pound for pound, I like Worley, Stanley and also Rivas of course, but Erik's criteria was "last 12 months", so Gaines for sure. As for Hopkins, not saying he's active, just a reminder/history lesson.

Didn't you just get thumped by someone else you never heard of?

IF Karl and Danial had pulled at AAA's they'd still hadn't pulled, cause of weight..(and the fact they don't pull the masters div)....I think your love for the legends has over taken your knowledge of the NEW pullers....Dana hasn't pulled an actual FL tourney in YEAARSSSSSS......until he does.....we won't know right.....lol..... and I do hope to meet with him soon, I'll pull with anybody!

I am more aware of the newer pullers than you think and am confident that I know more about the older pullers and the history of florida armwrestling than you.
Dana took 2nd in the open at Nats.

Hey Eric,
I think your region should say North EAST not North WEST. LOL The NW is out here in the WA, OR, ID area. ;-)
