Post by: seen2much on June 16, 2024, 06:32:49 AM: I have not watched Mohawk much. I saw JJ in the N.A. Cup & thought he looked big. The body type of an amateur driver is what I thought.

In contrast Doug McNair might just be too weak to be a harness driver. He gets in trouble very quickly when his drive gets even a little rank.

Post by: rainman2 on June 16, 2024, 10:35:46 PM: Did Jamieson's weight cause him to lose the Pepsi North American Cup last night? Many individuals associated with the sport says there is a difference between 140-220 lbs. in driving horses today!
Thoughts and input please

Lighter then Merriman and Stahl

And Stahl is no lightweight! I'd rather have Stahl drive my horses over JJ.

JJ = 'human anchor'---a valid observation!

Post by: Brown jug on June 17, 2024, 06:21:13 PM: i guarantee one thing
he is more than the 175 lbs shown in program
another great example of the sport being clueless, even if you believe drivers weight does not impact results at least get it right
if a tbred rider is even one lb over its announced

Post by: FirstUpFrom8Hole on June 18, 2024, 10:37:55 AM: The weight of the hands are more of a factor than weight of the body.

The weight of the hands are more of a factor than weight of the body.

So, he's heavy handed and an anchor in the bike.
