So, I'm seeing a lot of early interest in this tournament. If you're looking for a good payout and a large open class, come check it out. If you are a novice and want to challenge yourself against the corn fed TN boys or random bad A$$ bikers, you don't want to miss it! Around 11 confirmed that have experience pulling in the heavy novice class alone. Easily 6-7 in the 242. Please tell the new guy about this tournament so we can continue to add to the mix. There is going to be at least two live bands playing while were pulling along with a lot of other things to do.
More details to come.......

Jeff I love the sport and lately have wanted to travel and compete, but with certain health issues and buying and remodeling a farm, it has been very physically and financally hard for me, but really looking at this one.

I know of at least 4 confirmed ladies so there will aready be a fight for 1-3rd. This is from doing minimal advertising. Were going to run the ladies class right after the super matches and again, the ladies pull for free. (trying to find some local competiton to pull Tracy Fann who hasn't had a challenge in 4 tournaments.) I'm sure it stinks for the lady pullers who show up to a tournament 5 hours away and hope there is another female who wants to pull. If we have more than 10 ladies pull, I'll put $50.00 of my own money in for the overall winner. I'd like to split it up into two classes 0-142 and +143.

We should work on kristen turner fisher and ashlie way. I think they both would give tracy a go. I think christina pulled kristen one yr at ky muscle when ashlie owens broke her arm.

Thanks Robin! Steven said Kristen doesn't want to pull anymore due to seeing too many breaks. Ashlie Way has been invited, it would be great if she could come out.

I pulled both Kristen and Ashley at Ky pretty sure. was up there cheering someone on when Ashleys arm got broke. Not a nice thing to wittness. I have seen over half a dozen and none have been pretty. Ashlie needs to not think about the bad and focus on the possitive and train and learn to never get in the break arm position. I would be more than happy to show any newcomer anything they are wanting to know about our great sport. If the money and other pullers are going to be there then I am there also.

Ashlie owens HAS moved fwd, shes pulled in several tournaments since her and dave moved back cali. Its kristen, the one that was pulling ashlie, that cant find the gumption to pull anymore. She does attend the tournies with her husband pulling so she may be back one day.

Way to go Ashley! How many were in the ladies class? I would think it would be a good turn out with Sarah being there, but then maybe folks would not enter because she was in the mix? I saw the video with Gary Roberts pulling her, he didn't seem excited at all! LOL
So looks like there will be a $100.00 payout with a ladies class of 10 or more with no entry fee. Several ladies are showing interest and I know of 4 that are confirmed.

Several ladies are showing interest and I know of 4 that are confirmed. Only 4 and no pros real pullers besides Sarah. Since her break, Ashley has won a couple events and taken podium at 3 or 4 more. She has not beat any named pros but she also doesn't train at all and still does very well, if I ever get her to start training she will be a hand full.
