Well the Numbers may be down--BUT

The accomplishments of the dogs when you get there is pretty impressive. My buddy came by and picked up a dog we have won just a few dollars with and traveled 3 hours to a $kc hunt tonight. 4 dogs there which is in line with the hunt numbers being down.
Now the quality of the dogs there is a little different.
1. Grand Nt Ch Female National Money Leader last year in $kc
2. Stater Leader and 9th in the 2015 National Pup Race $kc
3. Just a Grand Nt Ch Platinum Champion
4. Our 2 year old mutt. Few hundred won and 1st place with UKC.

Our mutt has looked sharp this week and we will see in a few hours if them hot nights in the woods are paying off, lol
Win loose or draw, I am spending money and the wife says thats they only time I am Happy. I hope it is cooler up at Autumn Oaks next week!
Happy, Happy, Happy!

Entry fees, 7 hours of gas, food and water. Yep, this is a profitable sport. Kind of like raising pups. You have to love it, thats my excuse and I am sticking to it.

Good Luck to everyone at a hunt tonight--stay Safe and have fun.

I like Honey but you can keep the bees. lol

There was more to the story. 4 dogs there and 2 were owned by one group of guys and 2 was owned by another.
So with 4 dogs we couldn't split the cast and we had to hunt against the competition and ourselves. Now thats a money maker lol Kind of like your bees. lol

So one of my dogs lost and one of them won. Just not sure that is a win lol
