My Opinion, Pulling Leadership - 14 years ago
For anyone that has read this or any one of the other tractor pulling sites there is one theme that seems to show up time and time again, that being the leadership of their pulling organization. It doesn’t seem to matter if it’s at the local, state or national level; there is a perceived lack of leadership within their club. While I do agree that some organizations appear to have more problemby Dick Morgan - Forum

Jeremy; Thanks for your well written answer to my question. I do agree that most readers of pulloff.com are pullers, promoters, tech officials and board members; although most pretend they are “above” reading this web site.

If you were told that someone had built a Fendt 936 Vario for the Light SS class would you have more interest in seeing that pull or a DT466 with a Fendt 936 hood. Simple question, what do fans really want to see? Pulling was built on brand competition, red vs. green vs. orange vs. blue.
