Sybersnott Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 I'm thinking about putting on a grip contest for the state of Georgia. I'd like it to be a legit contest with some prizes... shooting for possibly the 5th of August 2006. Events unknown at this time. Venue unknown at this time. If I could get some tips from people who have put on grip contests, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AP Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 I haven't put on any contest but here goes: Find a cool gym and make sure some of the local guys will be there for the contest. Don't be too worried about getting the highest caliber guys for the first one - then again you might have someone come out of the woodwork and dominate. Don't worry if you don't have a lot of prizes that doesn't make the contest, a cool casual environment where people learn stuff is most fun - if you can get more that's great but a few grippers/tugs for the top placers is enough. Beer on hand helps, if it turns out you can't get enough showing for the first one - just turn it into a grip get together. Low entry fee, bring in some newbies and build a grassroots base of competitors. Post on a lot of boards too about the contest - there are lots of lurkers out there.
