  • Western Rookie - Corner Crossing

    Ever wondered if corner crossing from one public parcel to another is legal? In this episode of the Western Rookie Podcast, host Brian Krebs dives into the groundbreaking case involving four Missouri hunters in Wyoming, which has set a historic precedent for public land access. Learn about the history behind checkerboard land ownership, how corner crossing became a major legal battle, and the recent court decisions that could potentially open millions of acres of previously inaccessible public lands across the West.


    You'll gain insights into the complex origins of checkerboard maps dating back to the 1860s, how landownership and public access conflicts have evolved, and why the recent court rulings from the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals are monumental for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts. Brian also discusses important considerations for legally corner crossing, respecting private landowners, and the potential implications for future hunting opportunities.

    Whether you're a seasoned public land hunter or simply interested in the future of outdoor recreation in the West, this episode provides critical knowledge on navigating new legal terrain and expanding your hunting possibilities. Tune in, stay informed, and discover what this landmark decision means for your next hunting adventure!

    • Hound Dog Network - Gone To The Dogs with Billy Bell

      In this episode Steve talks with successful competition handler Billy Bell of Tennessee. Steve met Billy in 1998 when he joined the PKC organization as its Senior Vice President. Billy and his brother Avery were actively competing in PKC events and doing their share of winning at a time when entry fees and subsequent payouts were much smaller than they are today. Bell, has amassed nearly a half million dollars in handler earnings and continues to be a major force in today’s fast-paced competition game. The boys discuss several top hounds that Bell has handled including Carolina Peach, The Wicked Speed Shifter, Late Round Rock, Spice Girl, Cash Flow and others. Bell’s excellent recall of the hunts and hounds from his long list of experiences makes interesting conversation for competition junkies and novices alike. The episode finishes with Steve encouraging Billy to share his views on staying in top shape, physically and spiritually. It’s an episode that lives up to the show’s motto; dog talk at its finest!
