Yes. You can hunt your Gr.Nt at the local clubs.

you'll have to have a non hunting judge if your the only dog.

Rules are the same as a Nt Ch cast. If you have 3 or 4 Gr Nt Ch dogs, then the winner will earn Performance Points. One of the goals of the Performance Point Program in the beginning was to get more Gr Nts hunted at the local level. But it didn't happen.

Supporting clubs is great, but the biggest reason many Grand Nite owners don't enter their dogs in local level clubs is because the club has to come up with another guide and a non hunting judge...they typically don't have enough of either as it is without the Grand Nite dog. They also have to usually give out one more trophy. In the end, it may not be helping the club at all, and in some cases the club might be going in the hole.

Find 4 guys that want to hunt their GR.NT.CH and enter. Each dog puts up $10 and winner take all. The winner gets close to $80 with the calcuta and performance point and the club makes money.

In the recent past there's been a couple GrNt's at some of the local hunts. They were competing more for State federation points for Missouri, than anything. It was generally the same 2 GrNt's at each hunt and occassionaly another 1 or 2 would enter, since they knew there would be a GrNt cast. So, they didn't need a guide or a judge.

A GrNt can also earn Performance points. To correct what was said up above, you only need 2 GrNt's at a hunt to earn Performance points. There isn't much to be earned but if there are 2 GrNt's at a hunt, the winner gets .2 Perf. points.
