I'm deciding between this and CT States. If I go to this one i'll probably get to pull Jeremy Kessler. But, CT is a lot closer closer and cheaper to get to and Cowan wants a rematch with me  . |

Yea, I know how strong Kessler is. I pulled him after AAA nat's last year. My armwas shot and I could barely feelit then though. Because, I had been pulling with Time Lewis a little. Then some other guy who was just holding me and kept ripping my arm down over and over. I don't like being one for excuses though. He was better then me. But, i'm training HARD and i'm hoping to beat him at Get A Grip if i go.

Both you guys are young right? I've got a 18 year old that will pull ANYBODY 18 or younger right or left handed. Let's line it up. We can make it a SUPERMATCH if you want to. Let me know.

Rick who are you referring to?
I've been around to many different tournaments and in my opinion one of the best in the country in that age group (disregarding weight completely) nationwide is Tom Dixon (Nebraska).
Andrew Casto (West Virginia) would also be in that category but I believe he is too old now.

Chop,
My guy weighs about 165. He will pull anyone under 200 either right or left that is 18 or less. He is 18 if I am not wrong. Let me know.

Rick, why not try to set up Derrick with one of the best 165s in the country? Is this for money? Why restrict it to age when you know that Derrick's power is comparable to anyone at 165 in the country?

Sagebrush - 623 NC 24-27 Bypass East, Albemarle, NC 28001
As for Derrick, he has pulled twice since last Get A Grip. I would be scared to take him against anyone really good. I smoked him the last time he was there (Fresh) about 9 out of 10. He didn't look so good but he could still beat the kids I think.
