Charlie Bernstrom just texted me & asked how The Slunger is doing? I guess I�ve been neglecting my Slunger updates, probably because I can�t get a picture that really does it justice. It isn�t tall & photogenic like Cole Hocker the Pumpkin. The Slunger is white with a greenish tinge & is about six feet wide & six feet long. Its overall shape reminds me of an aircraft carrier. My friend Kirk Mombert (2 time Half Moon Bay winner from back in the 1990�s) says it is going to outweigh Cole Hocker by a mile. I guess they used to weigh pumpkins in mileage back then. This pic might give you some idea of how big it is. I�m standing next to it taking the pic with my phone reaching as high above it as possible & this is all that fits in the frame. Yes, The Slunger is a bad a$$ pumpkin. I think it will finish out at about 490� & will be about 13% heavy. I�m afraid to even put those numbers into the OTT calculator. That�s the latest on The Slunger.
