Nashville is a 3hr drive. Is anybody takin' anything worth drivin' that far to see? Somebody help me make up my scattered mind. Regards, Clutch

My wife and I are taking our melons, but I don't think they are worth a 3 hour drive to see. I'm sure someone will have the big 'uns

If I come, the melon I will be bringing measures only 166 pounds. I would be very lucky to place at all I think.

20% heavy would make it 198 you can always hope, I've never had a melon go to the charts.

Which usually weighs heavier, long and narrow, or short and wide.

Short and fat definitely weighs more heavy than long and skinny. That is a good sign for me as this melon is short and fat. lol Anyway, it's the first one I have to cut, not the biggest one I have. I always have fun in Nashville anyway. You guys drive carefully.

I had to cut these 2 or we would wait. I have one of each. The wide one is wider than my 2x4 tarp, so we'll see. Hopefully someone there can learn me on the correct way to measure one.

If your melon is over 2' wide Jeb it sounds like you have a near 70" girth. That is awesome baby! I am trying to wake up a couple of folks to help load my melon. I should have done that last night. The poor melon grew only about 8 pounds in the last 32 days. lol
