With the season winding it is time to see who will get the coveted GPC rookie of the year award. If you know of a first year exhibitor at a GPC site please give us their name & weight of pumpkin so we can find this years best Rookie.

Thank you,
Dave

Awesome job to get 1173 & 1121 in your frst year!!!!

Is that all? I would have bet there would have been some big first entries on the west coast??????

Brooks next time figure how to get the pumpkin to engulf the horse shoes or just paint the horse shoes orange & weigh them LOL!!!!

I think the Winner of the German Weigh Off in Ludwigsburg has a good chance for the Rookie of the year :
Wilfried Schierding 1329.4 lbs ( 1161 Rodonis x 1325 Hopkins)
