I will be in Champaign on and off for a couple years working on Assembly Hall. Looking to try and meet a few people to hook up with and make a few drops with. Thanks Jason Cooper 7736179719

Jason,

Look up Del Hudson. He's south of Champaign in Villa Grove I think. He goes by memorymaker on here and writes the article for the United English Breeders & Fanciers in the Coonhound Bloodlines. He'll be able to help you out I'm sure. He definitely would know more people than I do from that area.

There are several hunters and some state ground over by Danville, IL (about 30 minutes east on I 74). Rex Laker hunts Leopards, Lou Estep and his son and grandson hunts Plotts (and they have a Walker too I think) and I'm sure a few more. Welby Atkins lives north of Champaign in Paxton and hunts Plotts as well. He's the contact person for the Middlefork Coon Club up there so you should be able to find his info too.

Hope this helps. Guys I mentioned here are all good guys that I'm sure would help you out. If nothing else they could point you toward someone closer to Champaign.

Good luck!
