I don't think it's the spread of the hand that matters but the amount of meat on it.
When I pulled it was at 154 and my hand spread is 9 inches even but it would seem small compared to most pullers when we grip up because of the lack of "beef" on it.
A smaller hand will wrap farther around mine than mine will around a beefier hand.

9 3/4inches, 4 1/2 palm width. When Jacob Abbott and I put are hands next to each other his is only 1/8 inch bigger. I dont know what Soliwadas is, but people have said that we are close to each other. Word of mouth of course.

If we didnt count weight classes
larget Hand is Cleve Dean.
Next is Luke eldridge
Next is Rob Vigeant Jr. Whose hand is just not as meaty as Luke and Cleve's. might actualy be longer than Luke and Cleve's
Next is Bill Sinks

Rob Vigeant Jr's hand and mine are really close. If i remember correctly mine are a tiny bit longer than his..and cleves is like a 1/4 - 1/2 inch loner than mine and defintely thicker.

I dont know what Soliwadas is, but people have said that we are close to each other. Word of mouth of course. 9 3/4 inches, are you talking about tape wrapped around hand with closed fist? My right is 9 3/4in and the left is 9 1/4in with fingers straight out and tape all the way around, bigger closed. As far as length from bird to base, only 7 1/4 inches long. My palm is very thick, but fingers are slender. |

no andrew its where you spread your hand and measure from piny tip to thumb tip. measure the span. next just lay your hand down on a paper and make two marks to figure out how wide your palm is. with the way your talking about with the tape wrapped around your hand im 13 inches. very wide hand. thats the way the euros do it.

This is why 154 was just a pitstop for me. You guys have fun, I'm going down the road and not stopping till 132. |
