found this post on the Ring about shotputter C.J Hunter -
In an informal talk last year at Denton, Brian Blutriech (who still has one of the best shot-discus doubles of all time)and I were talking about C.J. and he told me a little story about the then 315-320 lb'er that is both funny and "freakish" ! I hope I get it right or Kapt. "K" will accuse me of smoking the "wacky" weed again.....grin! Anyhow, Brian asked C.J what was something that he felt was unusual or freaky that he could do athleticly? C.J. replied "Broadjump eight feet!!!" Brian said "I can do that.....!" and C.J. replied "On to a 3 foot table?" I hope Brian read's this and correct's any number's ect. but the horsepower to move that bodyweight and jump that far is pretty scary! Remind's me of a few Oldfield stories....smile! Oh yeah...speaking of 70 footer's...there could be (5-6) U.S. putter's over that distance at Eugene or at the trial's...Intresting scenario's !!!
