Is this anywhere close to Manassas,Va? I've never pulled before so this would be my first time but definitley considering it. I'm sure I would lose but I want to start competeing in armwrestling. Hampton Roads near Virginia Beach, SE VA. Get yourself to that tournament. National Level pullers attend every year. Stanaways are armwrestling history. From ABC World wide Sports to Yukon Jack, WAF Worlds to Sitdown Nationals. No better tournament to attend as a newer puller. You will walk away a better armwrestler.

I know first hand that the Military is not going to be supportive of an extreme sport. Just like John said, they have waaay too much invested in you as a usable asset for this country. I also know first hand that you are a solid dude on and off the table. Respect goes out to you B. Dye, take care of yourself first over anything and everything else will fall into place. See you down the line my man.

She'd trade Colorado if he'd take her with him Closes the door before the winter lets the cold in, And wonders if her love is strong enough to make him stay, She's answered by the tail lights Shining through the window pane He said I wanna see you again..... Colder Weather - Zac Brown Band Absolutely ... amazing song The other one is Jamey Johnson "That Lonesome Song"

Last thing.... im kinda convinced thats what happened. WHICH BTW is the reason I would stay away from pulling novice dummies who might have enough power and not enough sense of really whats going on, on the table and will recklessly attempt to ret@Rd right through you because he knows no different, whether it was your arm that was going to break or his. If you were pulling a pro in that match, it may not have happened. You've got to a pro level in terms of strength and technique. Spare yourself the ready gos with Novices and just ease em down nice and easy after pulling. Jmo

As many of you know i suffered a spiral fracture of the humerus. the break is clean but super painful. anyway i attached a youtube link to the video and i would like input from experienced pullers as to what went wrong. here is what i think: 1. to much side pressure and no back pressure which kept the match in the middle of the table and put all pressure on my humerus. I have been here 100 times without issue against much stronger pullers so i dont get it... 2. i have had shoulder and arm pain after black bull 2 and am wondering if pullin two classes caused stress fractures? Also i want input from others others who have had the injury and/or are familiar with it. 1. the surgery is optional, what do you feel is the best direction to go if i will continue to pull??? 2. how long until high pain levels subside and how long until i can train lightly again? i just want to get back out there! this crap is my life!!! I appreciate any input from all pullers... <iframe width="560" height="315" src=" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Ok....last time, EVER...you can break your arm in, wait for it.......ANY "ARM POSITION". Not just in an "arm break" position...It didn't go "wrong". Side pressure, back pressure, to long, short, etc, yadda yadda. It doesn't matter. Your arm is a novice arm. To make a bone "bigger,stronger" you have to put stress to the bone, hence, novice....So all that doesn't matter. Take advice from you DOCTOR, about having the surgery or not, not from this board. Since some have had it and others, like me didn't. Many who opted for surgery, and like what MY Orthopedist said is, you may have more complications and/or infections with "metal" in you.. This, again, of course, doesn't apply to all. Also, since the humerus is close to the heart, or for that matter, any bone close to the heat will heal quicker, then if the break was further away, say like the foot. Cause it takes the blood to travel further to the area to heal it. Ok, y blood? Cause it carries all the nutrients to heal it. Now pain....you had severe trauma to that area, you broken bones also pierced " material" (muscles, etc), so this all has to heal, so pain my be awhile, mine was a few weeks. Also, obviously, everyone heals differently, since my Dr opted NOT to operate, I was in and out of 3 casts and a brace in 6 weeks, training in 10. GOOD LUCK This ^ I was going to give some feedback, but thats some f*cking good advice right there. ^ That being said... I made a MAJOR hurdle for myself just watching that match knowing your arm was going to break. I NEVER watch armbreak videos. EVER. I've seen it happen up close and im spooked. BUT.... since I was there and standing near the table when that happened and had watched you and especially him pull all day. BTW... I was the one who said "OH SHHHT" loud on that video. I will say this ...he pressed everyone, every match all day. When that happened I was standing there with John Woosley and we both thought you went press on press and yours gave. But after watching, it didn't... or you didn't. I think you went side with hook... but HE PRESSED FWD directly into your hook from him being in a losing position putting pressure on your elbow and rather than your pronation giving in your hand and arm (which it didn't)... your elbow took that direct pressure and snapped your arm. It may not look like it on video, but that was the pressure he was giving in every match he had that day. Thats JMO.... as far as the advice goes... Christian said it as good as its gonna be said
