Jones Honored As Hot Shot's Secret Pro Pulling League Puller of the Year
Sellersburg, IN (December 11th, 2025) - At the recent Hot Shot's Secret Pro Pulling League Champions Banquet in Louisville, Kentucky, a puller that stood above the rest was honored as Puller of the Year for 2025.
Pleasant Hill, Illinois' Bobby Jones, owner and driver of the "Field Sobriety" Case IH, has found success on the track, including a 2023 ARP Lightweight Super Stock Tractor Championship. To the delight and surprise of the packed room of banquet attendees, the accolade of 2025 Puller of the Year was added to Jone's accomplishments in pulling.
Lauded for his selflessness and being an ambassador to the sport, Jones offered in his acceptance speech, "I try to help the competitors in our class...but everybody is an ambassador and puller of the year; it's just not the person up here, it's all of us...the hours we put in, the time we put in...everybody deserves this, it's not just one person."
Congratulations Bobby on this much-deserved honor!
