When PIGS fly is when the Grand American will move out of S.C.. everyone hates that the hunters and people in S.C. has the balls to tell everyone that "this is our hunt and it will be our hunt and will be ran as we want it to be run". I'm from N.C. but sure wish my part of N.C. would succeed to S.C.. My hats off to David McKee and all the others who run the Grand American.

Not out of SC....just a different venue.....but it's just chit chat at this point.
Thanks for the replys!!

Don't know where the "chit chat" is coming from . There has been no discussion of moving the GA in over 20 years.
We have been approached by a lot of cities, but we are happy with the relationship we have with the City and County of Orangeburg.

Didn't say anything about being happy especially with the only quality UKC hunt being moved out of N.C.. I was never satisfied with the way the Rowan county fairgrounds and the area in general around Salisbury were always glad to get the revenue but never showed the appreciation to the hunters, I would have much preferred it moving location but in my own state. My comment was intended to compliment David McKee and the S.C. hunters for having the balls to keep the control of the hunt in their hands and the way S.C. sticks to their roots.

i was told walker days was moved because the fees for Salisbury had went up so much. but NC state hunt is still going to be in Salisbury.
do not understand how state hunt can afford there but walker days cannot. HMMM? i was pretty sure walker days took in more money than NCstate. anybody know the reasons for either one?
