backfist Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 Being almost 40, my competition is limited to once or twice a year, but I still enjoy it tremendously. My serious competition days were back in the late '70s and early '80s. The days of Howard Jackson, Bill Wallace, Nasty Anderson, Billy Blanks and Ray McCallum. Back then, the CKC circuit was very active here in Calif. Tournaments and competitors have changed quite a bit, but I still manage to have a little fun when I do compete. So Many Masters; So Few Students
