On this week’s episode, we’re fresh from the 2025 Grand American Coon Hunt. Tune in as Trevor Wade, UKC’s Coonhound Program Manager takes us through the exciting weekend in Orangeburg where hundreds of dogs competed in the woods and on the bench. If you’re a competition coonhound enthusiast, you won’t want to miss this one!

First up is Mack Tallent from Missouri who loves to coon hunt along with guiding big game hunts out West. Next is Jason Roberts who travels a bunch with his Quinn dog, and they’ve had good luck at major events, including taking the title at Grand American in 2022. Then it’s Chris Speer, his handling partner, and his son who won the cast on Friday night. Next up is our Field Reps, Curtis Sparks and Philip Foster, to share their take on returning to this iconic event and what they saw over the weekend. Then it’s on to the bench show champions, Penny Turner and Rhonda Brown, and finally we hear from Eric Brown who was the Overall Nite Hunt Winner.
