But, not sure. My stats are 348 deadlift, 305 squat, and 220 bench. I weight 145 lbs. Im not sure how comps go so do you think i would even have a chance?

Sure winning is nice, but it's not always about that. I got spanked in my first meet, but as time went one, I won a few. It's definitely a learning experience. Your numbers aren't bad for a raw 148 just starting out. :)

depends on the size of the meet, at a national level meet you'd get stomped.

at a local meet you'd probably lift unopposed and "win"

As Cougar says, go and have fun. You're really there to compete against yourself. And at the next meet, you make sure you lift more than you did the previous. You'll have fun. Enjoy it.

You competing raw or what? I would say you would do pretty well you might suprise yourself.
