Trapper: I googled Matt Klingsborn. Got no results and I don't know who he is. Are you sure you spelled his name correctly? How long has it been since he's competed?
Found him: Matt Klingsporn. He won't make the top 10, in August he lost to AJ Henson, AJ is a strong puller but weighs 176 and loses to Corey Miller...

Thanks guys! I saw Glenn Brooks in the TN State Video on armtv but wasn't sure if he was midwest or not.
Like I said before. I am a 165 lbs. puller, the heavier the classes get the less pullers I know... please tell me who I am missing from the supers. This is the supers right hand list:
Supers Right Hand:
1. Richard Lupkes (won nationals, ranked 9th in the World, has wins on Bagent, Brzenk, Don Underwood, and Lindley Keating... no nutswinging, can't deny he's #1 in the midwest currently)
2. Don Underwood (beat Tim Bresnan at the Arnolds and made MT work, beat James Retarides, and Dave Chaffee. Beat Blaine Middleton and Robert Bishop at IL States)
3. Paul Fischer (3rd at worlds, beat John Shaw, Steve Attard, has beaten Robert Bishop, lost to Bresnan at ACAC)
4. Robert Bishop (beat Blaine, 1st Ohio states, 1st at MI States, has wins on Paul Fischer)
5. Jeff Bradley (has beaten Blaine Middleton, Craig Wirth, John Creekmoore, Trapper Saltzman and Scott Lohmann)
6. Bob Sutton (has beaten Blaine Middleton, Bobby Hopkins, Billy Kirk, and Lee Bonnett)
7. Blaine Middleton (has placed above Michael Todd and Lindley Keating, has beaten Billy Kirk and Don Underwood)
8. Travis Berggen (has beaten Robbie Burnett and Marc Lowery)
9. Steve Attard (has beaten Shawn Turner)
10. Billy Kirk (beat Matt Lively, Glenn Brooks, Kenny Flynn)

Since you are always below 242, I put you on the 242 rankings. I am only ranking people in 1 weight class. If you'd like to be ranked at supers instead of 242's I will do that, I put you at 3rd left handed at 242 however. And good job beating Billy, I did watch you put him down several times on Armtv.

Thanks Aaron! Your a good puller and are getting better all the time, anybody who beats you is certainly a top calibre puller.
Finally, It was hard to put these guys in order but, if anyone disagrees do not hesitate to speak up. Let me know if I forgot anybody.
Supers Left:
1. Robert Bishop (2009 IL, MI, and OH State Champion, national champion, has beaten Don Underwood, Paul Fischer, Matt Bertrand, Christian Binnie)
2. Don Underwood (1st at Unified Nationals 2009 over Lindley Keating, and Matt Bertrand, has beaten Michael Todd, Craig Wirth, and Billy Kirk)
3. Paul Fischer (has beaten Christian Binnie, 2nd at Unified Nationals in 2008 over Trent Meyer and John Buxton)
4. Billy Kirk (beat Ryan Barnett, Glen Brooks, Matt Lively, Bob Sutton, Rod Sellers, got 3rd at Unifieds in 2003,
5. Bob Sutton (has beaten Billy Kirk, Rod Sellers, Paul Walthers, Gerald Dees, Lee Bonnett, Bobby Hopkins Junior, Jeff Bradley, got 2nd at AAA nationals in 1999)
6. Jeff Bradley (has beaten Blaine Middleton, John Creekmoore, Billy Kirk, Trapper Saltzman and Craig Wirth. Lost to Lee Bonnett)
7. Travis Berggren (has beaten Marc Lowery, Ron Howell, Charles Hamby)
8. Mike Drew (beat a worn out Doug Allen, won MO State Championships in 2008)
9. Trapper Salzman (beat Dwanye Hanel, Scott Lohmann, and Cliff Hall, won the 2009 ND and SD State Championships)
10. Russ Kasper (beat Matt Lively at 2008 MO States)
If there are disagreements in any of the rankings, please let me know, otherwise next week I am going to make a thread for each class (154, 176, 198, 242, Supers). Also some people update their rankings every 4 or 6 months; I will make changes to the rankings whenever somebody on the rankings is beat by somebody ranked below them / somebody not ranked. So if somebody nobody has ever heard of goes to a tournament and beats Robert Bishop left handed I will put them at #1 (assuming Robert did not have a 3 minute long match right before that or get injured earlier in the day or something). This way is just easier for me to maintain the rankings. Thanks for the input and support, I think I did okay.

After the ROTN I am sure the rankings will be changed some, but I'll have to watch the videos because I can't remember who beat who all off of the top of my head.

A few changes have been made in the rankings. If there is anyone on the rankings who you don't think has been active lately (in the last 9 months - 1 year or so), or anybody who you know isn't training or planning on competing soon, let me know so I can take them off the rankings.
I am looking at: Brandon Redmond (last competed at the 2008 Kentucky Muscle that I can find, Nov. 2008). Is he still training or has he done any competitions this year?
When was the last time Eric Baldino competed, is he still training? I know he competed in Feb. 2009.
Quinlin Mendez, same question, last time he competed was Feb. 2009 that I am aware of.
When was the last time Steve Attard competed?
When's the last time Russ Kasper competed? I found November 1 2008 at the MO States.
Thanks for your help, if I don't hear back on any of these people, or see them in any new results, within the next month or so (whenever I update the rankings again) I will take them off the rankings.

Quinlin Mendez won 2 weight classes at the Ohio tournament. The one where we did not get our jackets from Willie.
