This is just an idea. Tell me what you think. As of right now almost all ukc hunts are 20$ i propose to raise it to 30$ take that extra 10$ and it goes straight to the final 4 purse of the world hunt. Do away with the rqe hunts. make it so you have to win 5 cw’s in one yr in order to qualify for the zone hunts. I think by doing this one you will see and added purse in the final four that will beat pkc, and chkc, which this would bring alot of their customers over. this would also benefit the clubs from the rise in numbers.

You want to increase entries at the clubs by raising fees by an extra $10?

Slam hunts are $30 and they seem be drawing plenty people. $10 isn't goin be stop more people than extra money and and qualifying requirements would draw in.

Obviously raising 10$ isnt the idea behind it please read the entire thing. it is not asinine to think the final cast could have a payout of 100k. 10$ every entry in entire nation would go to helping ukc pay for the payout. The required 5 cws required to qualify for zones would bring all the grnts out that in the past just go hunt 1 or 2 rqes just to get qualified. now with ntchs and grnts hunting together in even the small hunts under the new rules.. i think the competition will be a lil harder requiring people to hunt a few more to have a chance to get a piece of the final four purse which would be a great amount.

How about some of the interest they earn off the performance money they sit on for a yr pay out at the world hunt and leave the local clubs out of it.

What about the hunters that are not in the areas where the zones or world hunt is held--look at the many states that only have 1 or 2 dogs or none in the mix--like ny--last year very few were entered --was it because of all the traveling to the zones & if they got thru the following week at the world hunt?

look at where the majority of hounds are from--it may seem like a good deal to some but will only hurt those far away--imo

Here's one .....plenty of time I've wanted to go to a nite hunt
Only to find out the entry deadline is 2 hours before it gets dark.
I can't make those 8 pm entry deadlines....it's like the club doesn't want the etra enteries....soooooo we both lose out....and this is at the local level. Do away with the local entry time !

jim i agree but that is on the clubs. every club has the option to pay back money at every hunt. what im saying is the 100k and the requirement of winning 5 cw a yr will bring dogs out that normally wouldnt hunt it. Alot of grntchs that would hunt. go back and look at last yr how many grntchs hunted zones? how many hunted rqe’s now if everyone of them got the 5 cw’s how many entries is that for a club somewhere? thats a whole lot of entries. i hunt alot of pkc hunts and can tell u there are ALOT of pkc hunters that would definitely hunt ukc for that big of a purse.

I love going to clubs with large number of folks an dogs. Some will disagree with me an that’s your right to do so. But, the way I see it clubs are not really needed anymore . Money hunts is the only thing that matters anymore. That’s fine , I like them too. But, you really don’t need a club house. You have store parking lots , sheds in back yards an drive ways . Some know what am talking about. If you find ways to keep the money instead of putting it into an club things are better, I guess. I wish it would come back. We live in a world today where if it’s not quick an easy people get bored with it an move on. There is to many hunts to go to to be worried bout being tied down with the responsibility of a club. That an the sportsmanship suck these days.

I like the idea but the number 1 thing that is killing the hunt numbers in middle TN is there is 3 different hunts tonight within an hour of my house a pkc double header a ukc hunt and a chkc hunt so people can't make all three it's tough

Sounds like tax and spend to me. That is a liberal principal that the Democratic party is based on. The government collects money from everyone and then decides who to give it back to. In this case UKC will tax hunt participates all year and then give the money back to the winner of the World Championship.

We had a slam at our club tonight and nobody came. Maybe if we had charged $10 more?

What good would it do to raise entry fees? Ukc would take most of the money for thier fees and etc. I'm sure as heck not gonna run around to win 5 cast a year just to go to the hunt that if anyway possible thier rich buddies are gonna win anyway! We dont have good places to guide a hunt in Lafayette. Management isn't nothing but mountains so u cant call a dog. Pkc is mostly won by big money A working man cant take off every other week to go to a week long event.

Many more people would hunt the ukc hunts if they offered a purse like im speaking of. 100k to final cast. you may not like it not everyone will. then again u cant please everyone

So for me I enjoy the UKC hunts because there is no money involved. Now I haven't hunted any of the other KC's but I have hunted against a lot of them in UKC hunts and I have found they are the loudest, rudest people I have hunted with. Now not all are like that but the one's I have hunted against have turned me off to the money hunts.

I thought the performance program was to bring out more hunters since it offered a payback. How's that working out? Your not gonna draw bigger crowds by charging more, when the pool of people your trying to draw from is small anyway.

It would be nice to have a bigger payout but do you really think UKC needs more money to have a bigger payout at the world? No. They have made nothing but profit from their hunts for years they can afford it on their own. Shouldn’t come out of our pockets when they been taking it and we been getting nothing in return for years.
