In 2008, the World Hunt was in Elizabeth, Illinois. There were 650 dogs total entered in the zones. There was a total of 122 dogs entered in the show.

In 2009, the World Hunt was located in Rogersville, Tennessee. There were 717 dogs entered to hunt in the zones. There was a total of 144 dogs entered in the show.

This year, at Columbia City, there were 716 dogs entered to hunt in the zones and if my memory serves correctly, around 150-151 dogs confirmed for the show.

This was my first year at the World, but it seemed that there was a very action packed final four, and a healthy number entered in the show.

If there was a 150 confirmed for show probably 120 or less showed.

nails in the show ring

and as far as the dogs slipping, maybe if ya'll didn't cut their toenails back to the quicks maybe they'd have something to grab a little traction with. dogs cant hunt without toenails so i dont think they should have to show without them either

in the woods a dog needs his/her nails to DIG into the SOFT ground, in a show ring you cut the nails short so that their PADS are touching the surface that they are gaiting on, which is usually a hard, smooth surface.

a good comparison is bald tires to brand new tires, bald tires [or pads] are best for dry days on pavement (more traction due to how much tire [or foot] is touching the ground) but new tires [or nails] are better for rain, snow or anything where the tire isnt directly touching pavement, better traction that way.

anyone else have a good way to explain it? that's the best way i can explain it.

There's always a few that don't show up even after paying the entry. Last minute things pop up that require spending your trip money on other things and dogs come in season and some are just burnt out after a recent trip to AO's. Forfeiting your entry money is a drop in the bucket compared to what the trip itself costs if you live any great distance away.
We've always liked to just be there but it hasn't escaped our attention that fewer of us old campaigners are around each year. Due to some problems I was having with the dogs we may not have made it this year if it hadn't have been reasonably close but it wouldn't have been because we didn't want to be there trying to win it.
