Thinking for the 2015 WWGG contest I would like some ideas & suggestion.We will be splitting some of the contests this year in to 2 contests.
Field Pumpkin Novice
Field Pumpkin Seasoned grower
My question is What would be the cut off weight? Please leave your responses here.Not looking to debate it. If you have a suggestion or dont want to go public with your input.please send to Mark@worldwidegiantgrowers.com example: Say its 100 lbs.If your PB is under that your in the Novice contest.If over that your in the seasoned contest.However a confident newbie can join either contest. Please post the weight below you feel would be fair. Thank you Very Mulch!!
Ok Not thinking this is a contest that should be split?? What is your thought?????

Mark, 100 lbs sounds like a reasonable PB weight for the cutoff. Of course I would prefer a 133 lb cutoff so I could be a novice. lol

I agree with josh and master P that it should probably stay one class. It took a little over 100 lbs to be in the money this past year. If you do split it I think 100 lbs would be a good split weight.

I can see two classes for giant pumpkin but I think everything else should be just one class.

One class would work but pay out top 15 or 20. As always it's awl-good.

I think paying top 15 or 20 would be ok if we have enough participants in the contest.Seems like a lot of places to pay for 50 or 60 people entered??

If you get 30 entries again I would only pay top 10.
