We're going to see what happens here.
Hopefully our connection is good.
Kestin Jesse, how are you?
Matt Johnson, what's up bud?
Like I said, hopefully our connection is good.
Usually Basham, he hops on and does everything.
But tonight he is at a hunt, so he just asked to join.
Brandon White is watching.
We're going to accept Basham.
Okay, we are adding Basham.
Tyler wrote and said tell Basham I did good in my first UKC hunt.
Tell Tyler to be quiet.
Oh, he's on here.
What's up buddy?
What's up bud?
Hey, I tell you what, I don't understand why whenever I go live, it zooms in on my face
like this.
Like, I mean people are getting a nice up close personal look at how good I am.
Huh?
Oh, we lost Basham.
There he went.
Dad gone it.
Billy Anderson says Raw Dog is in the house.
We're glad to have you here.
I wonder what happened there.
Where did Basham go?
Come on back buddy.
Come on back.
Bradley Kelly.
Jennifer Basham, you need to get your husband in check.
Chris Allen.
What's up?
Dean Daugherty.
Hey guys, Dean Daugherty put us in some real hunting for the final cast for the UKC Zones.
Dalton Hillard.
What's up my guy?
As soon as Basham gets back on here guys, we're going to get after it here.
Kind of excited for tonight.
It's been a while since we've done a dog on Tuesday with everybody.
It's been busy.
It has been busy with Basham at Superstakes and me trying to get ready for the UKC World.
It's been wild.
So Austin Terrell is on here.
He had a good run at Autumn Oaks.
I don't know if we've even done a dog on Tuesday since Autumn Oaks.
I'm just not sure here.
Let's see here.
All right, there's Basham.
We're going to accept and see if we can get him on here again.
Here he comes.
Is he going to join us?
All right, don't mess it up this time.
Hey, what?
No, your audio is horrible.
Well, how about now?
Nah, I got you good right now.
All right.
Good.
All right.
Well, Basham, let's just kick it off here.
Let's talk about your run at the Fall Superstakes.
Just lead us off here.
I done told everybody you and I've been busy.
You at Superstakes and me at the World Hunt.
So tell them all about it, Mr. Earlier Round.
Do we got to talk about my late round curse?
Yeah, we do.
I mean, you can't close nothing.
No, no.
It's not just the dog.
I mean, I think I'm on dog number four and I think I'm something in the vicinity of like
15 for 18 in early rounds and 0 for 15 in late rounds.
Oh, dude, like, it's not funny.
But what is the deal?
Because it's the Spring Superstakes and the Fall Superstakes.
I mean, it's every time.
It's just it's just be get beat by quarter here or 50 there or random things like it's
Spring Superstakes one year.
I had 10 minutes left.
Couldn't be beat.
Dog comes, treed, stationary work in a tree dog and the dog on island.
So you call time out, hour catches it, you're scratched.
Somebody else wins.
Yeah.
Well, let's talk about the dog you're hunting.
Tell us a little bit about that little dog you're hunting.
So the little dog that I'm hunting, a nice little pup, I got him September 1st from Trinity
Nickel who owns him.
Hadn't been hunted much at all in three months.
So right away, I'm kind of skeptical, you know, get him to the house, start working
on him.
Little Coon Trier moves around pretty good.
When he trees, he has his Coons and, you know, early round, I mean, all week, early round
and even late round look good.
Only night he did not look good was early Thursday night.
I mean, that was late round Monday night.
He didn't look as good as he could have.
But other than that, I mean, he looked pretty good both rounds all week Thursday, the wheels
fell off.
And he said, I told him before I left the club, I said, you're not going to win late
round.
Just don't win early either.
And he I think he heard me because he went out and just.
Hey, Dean, daughter, Dean, daughter says you need a good red dog.
Yeah.
Oh, Zach bots on Kevin Collins.
Hey, guys, we're glad to have you here.
We we've been over here talking about Basham's misfortune at the Superstakes.
But hey, I will give you this.
I heard it was Greg Maynard.
I'll give you this information.
I drew Greg Maynard Thursday night at the World Hunt.
And he told me, he said, man, what is up with Basham?
He said, that guy hunts harder than anybody I know.
And he can't get an early or a late round.
So you did get a compliment.
I mean, people are noticing how hard you've been hunting.
Yeah, I mean, you know, I go on I go on ticks where it's you know, I either work full time
like I was down in E town and I'll hunt a little bit or like I am now, where it's just
it's all night every night.
I'm just hunting.
So, you know, just trying to get dogs ready, trying to hunt dogs for people and and work
on a few things.
So that's kind of what I'm doing now is I've got you know, I've got a few dogs out here
that I'm hunting for people and just trying to get them ready.
We're going to we're going to make a push with Morgan.
And I got a few things that I want to work on him with.
But I'm telling you, that pups going to be heard from he he's nice.
He's not your typical, you know, from what I hear, like I said, I know Cap has a lot
of pups on the ground.
But you know, everybody know when Captain America, you know, he's kind of a action pack
type dog.
And this one here is completely, you know, completely the opposite.
I mean, he is a you strike a track, run the track tree, the tree of Cone, and he's going
to have it.
So we've got to work on him a little bit around the field so he understands, hey, this is
a field.
Let me you know how to hunt them stuff like that.
But the little dog comes from West Virginia up there at Alex Markham's right around Micah.
So he comes from the mouth of the dog knows how to run a track tree.
Yeah.
Well, hey, I've got to say one thing.
I'm proud of you.
At least you remembered your dog every night you went to the hunt.
I see we have a viewer watching.
I'm not going to mention his name, Jason Daughtry.
But you know, at least you remember your dog when you went to the hunt.
So I'm proud of you, buddy.
Good job.
I'm proud of you.
God bless it.
I laughed so hard when I saw that.
Hey, Tyler Compton said if Stephen Basham is talking, somebody's lying.
What do you got to say about that?
Let's not get into it with Tyler.
Oh, we'll leave that one under the bus.
Oh, God.
Oh, Albert Ashcraft.
He gets on here and he said Bucky is in the house.
I mean, Bucky, it's getting pretty close for him to be up in the tree stand.
The eagle was getting ready to be in the tree stand.
Was Bucky?
Bucky?
Really?
He got the first Semper Doggin hat.
Well, he got the first Semper Doggin hat.
And then I saw Dean Daughtry this weekend.
He had the very first Semper Doggin Tumblr giveaway.
He was drinking coffee out of it in the late round there at the UKC World.
So it's good stuff.
All right, let's talk about the PKC side before we dive in here to the UKC.
PKC Youth World.
Let's just break this down.
There was a lot going on this last weekend.
You had the PKC Youth World Championship, the Fall Superstakes, and the UKC World Championship
going on at the same exact time.
And they were all within a couple hours of each other in Illinois.
I mean, it was busy.
Heck of a showing for the PKC World.
Heck of a showing.
Nice, nice dog cast.
I mean, you take those three dogs, they're nice little dogs that they had hunting on
there at the Youth World hunt.
Dale Hough said Bucky needs the first Semper Doggin treadmill.
Winning sophomore Superstakes.
That's a litter mate.
Man, I'm telling you.
So I just reposted it.
Kyle's got two puppies off of that cross.
And you know, it's kind of funny.
You know the trend.
So many people, you know, they'll say, oh, you know, I'm breeding this male to this female,
and the mom does this, and the dad does that.
I won't own a female that doesn't run in Trier Coon.
That cross is off a drive and a porch dog.
Never treat a coon in her life.
Me and you talked about this.
Never treat a coon in her life.
And look at all the dogs that have come off of that litter.
Axel, the lion dog.
You've got Gabe Seacrest's female.
You've got Homer that Ryan Reynolds owns.
You got Joe.
And I know there's more that I'm forgetting.
And that's two different crosses, but the same, you know, two different litters with
the same cross.
And I'm telling you, that cross is showing that the proof is in the pudding.
Yeah.
So we're going to get to Dale, but let's start with the PKCU's world champion.
Oh, Max Rivers.
How about it for the kid?
Yeah.
He did a good job down there.
Oh, yeah.
Bucky had the dog in the reserve, right?
He did.
Oh, and Alec Hummel, he's watching.
So congratulations to Alec.
He was hunting a dog that come from Dale.
That was the hurricane dog.
They call him Kane, crossbred dog.
So old Dale, he had a dog in the finals of the youth world and of the Superstakes.
So hats off to him and him and his dad there.
So the saw, let's go with the freshmen division.
This is a team that I don't know much about.
Maybe you can fill me in.
Jacob Briner and the JB dog.
You know anything about them?
I don't either.
No, never heard the dog's name.
I don't know Jacob.
But either way, congratulations to them.
Freshman Superstakes, that's a big deal.
So congratulations to them.
And then obviously we got to talk about Dale Huff and old Joe winning the sophomore Superstakes.
So I know Dale's been knocking on that door for a long time.
So glad to see him finally punch his ticket in there.
He's due for that one, don't you think?
I'm glad somebody's knocking because I sure know.
No you're not.
Let's see here.
Dan hubs.
Do what?
I said I'm in the wannabe section.
Yeah.
Dan hubs.
He said we came in late and almost got him on two hours of sleep, 14 hours on the road.
He just needed one.
Well, I know you come down from New York, Dan.
So that's a good showing there.
It sounds like.
Old Bucky.
He said Dale Huff is his best friend.
Those two go back and forth like oil and water.
They just don't mix.
They just fight each other the whole time.
Let's move right on along.
Adam French and what's that dog's name there?
Ruby won the junior Superstakes.
And she got third last year.
That is a dog that Carl Proctor used to have, correct?
That's the one that Carl Proctor trained and he was partners with Jason and Jason said
the dog would never make anything and hated it.
And so he convinced Carl into selling it.
That hurts.
We got a rag, Jay.
That hurts.
Hey, Caleb McDonald's on here watching.
Hey, I got to meet Caleb at at Autumn Oaks.
Yeah.
So we've had him on here.
If you guys haven't heard that podcast with Caleb McDonald, you can go back and check
that out.
Oh, Kyle Dorch just joined us.
Kyle, we were just talking about the cross you had there with the Joe dog.
Dale Huff just won the sophomore Superstakes with.
I tell you what, old Drive has been good.
He's been good to you in the fall Superstakes last few years.
Very good in the fall and in the spring.
I mean, like I said, the one that O-Line, the line dog, he got third at spring Superstakes.
So yeah.
Hannah Fallin says, hey, hey.
So glad to have her on here.
We did a podcast with her.
If you guys haven't heard that one, go back and check them out wherever you guys listen
to all your podcasts.
So I'm glad to see everybody getting on here and hanging out.
This is fun.
I mean, this this dog on Tuesday, it took a while for things to take off, but it's starting
to get fun and interesting.
You know, I really enjoy all the people getting on here.
All right.
Let's go to senior Superstakes winner.
Old Scott Engel and Cat Man Dude.
No cat man dude.
Hey, congratulations on that.
You know, just a second.
Let's talk about the runner up.
Yeah.
Hey, every time.
Hold on.
Every time you hold on.
Stop.
Shut up.
Hey, I don't know what you're doing, but every time you move your phone, we're losing you
on service.
You're moving your phone around.
Put it where you had it and leave it.
How about now?
All right.
Try it again.
You're good there.
Let's talk about the dog that got reserved.
Oh, buckle bunny.
Ava.
Yeah.
Yep.
Old was it Justin Perryman Hunter?
Yeah, I think Ava and Scarlett and I was on a thread with Scott Engel.
I think they're the only two that have made that kind of run at a Superstakes.
Yeah.
I mean, she won it.
One in her freshman year or no sophomore year and junior year and then reserve senior year.
Right.
And then Scarlett won it sophomore, reserve junior and then won it senior.
Yeah.
Yeah, absolutely.
So I mean, that's pretty impressive.
And another interesting fact is they're both females that finished first or second three
years in a row at the Superstakes.
So you know, heck of a show in there.
So that's awesome.
That rounds out everybody at the Superstakes.
Is there anybody that I'm forgetting there?
Hold on.
Caleb McDonald says, all I can tell you is that Ruby that I was hunting did not win the
Superstakes.
Don't worry, buddy.
There's a lot of people who didn't win.
There's a lot of them.
Yeah.
I bet.
Even though you didn't win, you got a little bit of sleep, which that I did not get, man.
I don't know how you did it.
I mean, you literally went like 77 hours with no sleep or something stupid.
Well, not that much, but it was 47 hours without no sleep.
Oh, I thought it was another day on there.
No, 47 hours without no sleep.
That's rough.
Hey, Gabe Seeker said he hunted the dog called Schooner River Jack and made the final three
all three years.
I didn't know that.
No.
Gabe, was that a fall dog or spring dog?
What year was that?
Fill us in on that one.
I want to know more about that.
That's got to suck.
Get to the finals all three years and not win it once.
Yeah.
That's like the 90s Buffalo Bills.
I don't know.
You're passing on that one over my head.
Or Super Bowls in a row and didn't win a single one.
Oh, my mom just hopped on here and said that I guess my dad wants to know what it's going
to take to get one of those nice looking hats.
Well, it's going to take you about $45 by the time I ship it down there to you.
Or maybe you can come up and watch the kids for a day and I'll trade you out watching
the kids for a hat.
That's what it's going to take.
I'll take mama once.
Yeah, we just got these new Rafter E family farm set hats in here.
These came right there from Mr. James Ashley Book and Design.
So it is a nice quality leather patch cap hand sewn.
If you guys have been around the hunts here the last few months, you've seen a bunch of
guys walking around with the patches that have their dog's names on them and stuff.
Those come from Book and Design.
They are quality hats.
So we reached out and had him make a couple with us.
So man, hey, these comments rolling in here, I got to back up here for a second.
Let's see here.
Jeremy Shaddy says he believes that Yant won the one year old super stakes, the futurity
and the two year olds back in the day.
So guys, we're getting some history here that I didn't know about.
This is the kind of stuff that I love and I would love to dive into some of these things.
Let's see here.
Mark Adkin says now we know why the way he looks the way he does.
He's on no sleep.
Everybody can be Mark and just take a hiatus from coon hunting whenever he wants.
Yeah.
Not get his dog ready for anything.
Just just prance his little show dogs around the yard, his little puppies.
Hey, he's not a coon hunter.
He's a he's a show dog handler now.
Oh, God.
Secret says false fall dog around 2006 or sevens whenever he got in there with Jack
and Jeremy Shaddy said that he was in with Thrasher.
So hey, this is this is good.
Good stuff.
I'm into this.
I like this kind of information.
I'm going to change his name to Prancer in my phone.
Oh, Prancer Adkins.
Prancer got his little rug, his rug, Ella puppies, old Ruger and Ella, just prancing
them around everywhere, getting them ready for the showbench.
Hey, don't don't let him fool you.
I saw him giving those puppies away at the World Hunt this weekend to their new owners
and he had a little tear running down his eye.
He was so upset.
All right.
Hey, let's run over to UKC.
Let's switch gears here for a second.
This weekend up in Marshall, Illinois, was the UKC World Championship.
That is where I was at.
You and I, we had both registries, both registries covered.
You were at the PKC.
I was at UKC.
Let's see here.
We got comments rolling in here.
Mark said he looks good doing it and don't be hating.
Hannah Fallin says that she thinks Chad got in two of the three years of Cletus and won
his junior year.
So there's a lot more stuff here that we didn't know about.
I'm glad that people are filling us in.
Look at I mean, Screamer had a good running at Super Stakes.
Tripp, Ashley Gunther, he's Tripp dog.
He won it two years and I think got in the final nine one year.
I mean, there's quite a few out there that have had great runs at Super Stakes.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Man, the UKC World, that was an awesome, awesome event.
UKC, United Kennel Club, they hands down by far no questions asked put on the best major
events going today.
I don't care what anybody says.
You can hunt for $30,000 in PKC.
You can hunt for a new truck in pro sport.
But there ain't nothing like the attention that UKC puts on the dogs, the focus they
put on the dogs and making you feel like you've done something.
I mean, they put on an absolute show.
And so my hats off to them.
I got boys coming in here from the football game, so it might get a little loud.
So a shout out to my boys.
I just left the game early to come here.
They were absolutely stomping the school that they were playing.
It was like 38 to zero at halftime whenever I left.
So shout out to my boys.
They were both playing good.
Colton and Wyatt had some good hits and they were doing all right.
So I felt good enough to come here.
Colton Clarkson with the W. Man, Casey Maggard and Little Lacey, they were your this year's
two 2024 UKC World Champions.
And they absolutely had a fantastic and kind of a little gut wrenching final cast.
I was fortunate enough to walk along there on that final cast and Lacey, she kind of
got lost for about an hour, like legitimately lost.
She struck and treated a coon for first and first had 225 in about the first five minutes
of the hunt and Casey recut her and she kind of went deep.
And then his Garmin kind of quit working and he didn't have her picked up for a long,
long time.
And old Braxton Wills, the 15 year old from Oklahoma who finished second.
How about that?
Let's give a shout out to old Braxton.
That is very impressive.
I mean, that kid, the memory that I have with Braxton is you calling me at autumn Oaks two
years ago at like one in the morning and saying, Hey, I was on a hunt or a cast of this kid
and his dog was in the bank.
I need you to bring me a shovel and try and come help us get him out.
Well, I didn't have a shovel, but I was like, I'll be there and try and help you.
And you, me and Braxton sat in the bank of Brookville Lake for like three hours trying
to get this dog out of the bank.
And this dog would not come out for anything.
We couldn't get up in there and reach her.
You could barely see your little head around the corner.
And there was these guys out on a boat.
They were doing some night fishing and we turned our lights on and we got them to come
over to us and I, Hey, is everything all right?
And we're like, well, we're okay, but we have a dog stuck in this whole like y'all got any
hot dogs or anything.
And he had a Wendy's cheeseburger and we took that Wendy's cheeseburger and we'd put it
on the end of the stick and we were trying to coax this dog out and trying to coax her
out and she would not come.
And we ended up having to leave her there.
And what the one thing that sticks in my head is how calm, cool and collected Braxton was.
He would have been like 13 at that time and he didn't get upset.
He didn't get frustrated.
He didn't get angry.
He just, that was the year I won those.
Yeah.
He just sat there and was like, man, this sucks, but, but it is what it is.
He's like, we'll just leave her for tonight and we'll come back in the morning and try
and find her.
And they went back down there and he was out and he was out.
Yeah.
That little, that little jip was out.
I think he said they found like six miles away or something.
So she ended up coming out of that hole.
So that was my memory with Braxton.
And we've actually stayed in contact since then.
Every hunt that I go to, he's out, he and I talk and chat.
And I mean, I was just so glad to see him there in the finals, that super stakes, that
kid, he's homeschooled.
So he hunts a legitimate five to seven nights a week.
He hunts hard.
He does his schoolwork, you know, around his hunting schedule.
Like he eats, eats, breathes sleeves, coon hunting, sleeps, coon hunting.
Vic's always taking him to taking him to every hunt, hauling him up and down the road.
Shout out to Vic.
Top notch guys.
Yeah.
Top notch.
Couldn't have a better group of guys.
No.
So let's see here.
Jeremy Shaddy said Levi Stevenson and Engel finished fifth this year in the UKC world with
Buck.
If he would have won, it would have made history.
Buck is out of a world champion rodeo and world champion Lila.
There has never been a father, mother and offspring all world champ.
How about that?
That would have been pretty neat.
Oh yeah.
And that's like, that's like the little lacy.
I mean, she, I think we just talked about her super stakes.
She won juniors, she won seniors.
Eric Pied has hunted her a lot winning.
I don't know what all he's won with her, but hunted and won a lot with her.
And then now she goes on to win the UKC, UKC world.
That little jip is tough.
Yeah, she is tough.
And, and you know, that was super exciting.
Like I said, I was out there doing the play by play reporting, filling in for Trevor.
And you know, I was kind of just talking to all the handler separately, obviously not
giving anything away, just kind of getting by themselves and, and just trying to figure
out where dogs are at so that I could do the reporting.
And Casey, he's like, Hey man, he's like, dude, my Garmin's not working.
Like, I really don't know where this dog is.
He's like, she's deep.
And I think he ended up picking her up, but we went up on top of the hill to score the
Fergie dog.
And you know, the hunt, there's not much time left in the hunt and you hear, I think Joe
was Braxton's dog's name.
You hear him come wooded and that dog still needs to strike.
And you can hear him wooded and Braxton asks about, or about that time you hear Lacey just
jam up.
And she hadn't been heard from and she just come treed and Braxton asked the judge, judge,
do you hear me?
And about that time, Oh, Casey books Kate or little Lacey on the paper.
And he's like, trigger for one and a quarter.
And so that kind of, you know, I think, I think Casey was feeling the pressure because
he was only up by a quarter on Braxton.
And he knew that that, that is where experience came in on that one is Casey knew he needed
to get treed first because if for whatever reason she did not have a coon, he got to
read, he would have just a few minutes to recut.
So that was a, that was an experienced handler moved by Casey.
And let me tell you something.
We walked in there to that tree and judge says, all right, start the shine time.
Casey walked out in the field.
He threw a light up in that tree and it was just two eyes beaming down.
And the amount of emotion that went through him at that given time, I can't, I can't even
describe it.
Like I had no dog in this fight.
Wheels and I finished 14th this year.
That's where our run ended top 27.
We finished 14th.
We got beat.
He made one little mistake there to keep him out of the top nine.
And so, you know, I didn't have anything in it, but I felt like I won the world championship
out there in the middle of a bean field.
Oh man, Casey, I gave him a big old hug.
I was like, dude, I'm freaking proud of you.
Like, like he was just overcome with emotion and you see Lacey in there just hammering
on that tree and you look up and there's a $10,000 coon and a world champion has just
been crowned.
And he's like, man, I've been trying my whole life for this.
And, and you just see the raw emotion come out of him.
And it was like, man, this is, this is what it's about.
Like this is why we do what we do.
You know, I want to be there one day.
I want to be in his shoes.
Like I will not stop trying until we get there because I, I, I just want to feel the way
he felt that day.
Like I don't know.
I don't even describe it.
It was just awesome.
Dean Dautry was there.
He was the judge.
He was the final round judge.
And he's like, yeah, it was a totally awesome moment.
Like, and then to be able to do that live interview with him right there in the, in
the woods and, and to capture that, like he's going to have that video forever.
You know, like it was just, it was such a cool, cool moment being out there.
So congratulations to Casey and little Lacey.
I know they've worked super hard on this and it was just, it was just an awesome event.
Like I don't know what else to say about it, but yeah.
So congratulations to Casey and little Lacey Braxton and Joe finished second.
The Fergie dog finished third.
Now I didn't know.
Do what?
I didn't know that guy.
I didn't either.
I hadn't, I hadn't met him until that night and his name was escaping right now.
I greatly apologize.
Fickens, Randy, Randy Ficken, I think was his name.
Yep.
But he's an old red bone guy, supposedly.
I guess he used to hunt a bunch of bunch of red dogs.
Yeah.
So, all right, hey, we've had some comments rolling in here while I was telling that story.
Jeremy Shaddy said Lacey's daddy is a world champion also.
And she is, she is off of, yeah, she's off Willie.
Yep.
Walt Costco said I've helped school him in the woods with blaze Bauer a few nights.
We always thought taught him some lessons after the hunt, but blaze Bauer was the teacher
that taught me.
Walt says, didn't they see heat, but couldn't see fur on Joe's circle tree.
Yeah.
So right there at the very beginning of the hunt, uh, when Lacey got treated for a hundred
and a hundred and a quarter, uh, Joe sunk in there and made a tree and the Fergie dog
backed him on it.
Um, I mean, I was there, I was looking around.
I didn't see anything.
Everybody wants to think that they see heat.
I don't know if they did or not.
I did not break my thermal out.
Um, I didn't shine any trees with a thermal, so I cannot say for myself.
Um, but, but there was no, there was no coon there from what we could see.
Oh, Jeff clumps watching.
He says, see you tomorrow.
Bryce is the champ.
Hey, I want to talk here just for a second with Jeff clump.
He's actually, uh, he is the owner of a company called water feather boats.
And I have seen a couple of people here.
It used to be called ultimate predator boats.
And I've seen some guys here lately down south that have been using these boats to go retrieve
their dogs.
Like in the sloughs of Louisiana and stuff.
Um, I've seen a couple of guys here on Facebook recently been doing it.
They're, they're an ultra light boat.
I think they weigh like 57 pounds.
You can put a two horsepower motor on them.
Uh, a lot of guys using for duck hunting and stuff, but for those guys that live in the
swamps and the marshes in the sloughs, those water feather boats have got to be the ticket
and they're not priced terribly for what they are.
Um, you could have used them that, that one night, your dog got out on the island.
Yeah.
Dean doctor said, Randy Ficken.
Yes.
Okay.
I was correct there.
Um, and I don't know what Walt's saying here, by the way, you hosted it to the tree.
I don't, I don't know what that means.
Well, good to a T. Oh, meaning your play about play.
Oh, a T there we go.
Okay.
Great.
Well, thank you.
Well, I appreciate that.
I thought he said hosted it to the tree.
My eyes weren't working on me there.
Um, no, I appreciate it guys.
And I enjoy doing that stuff.
Just like I enjoy doing this stuff with all you guys.
I love being able to bring content to viewers who are not able to be there.
Um, it was awesome.
And you know, unfortunately it was a bad circumstance in which I had to fill in for Trevor.
He lost his grandmother.
So, um, you know, I want to just give our condolences to Trevor and his family.
That's it.
That's a very trying time.
Whenever you got one of your biggest events of the year, uh, for your job and then you
get a phone call like that, it's just, it's got to play havoc on a guy.
So condolences to Trevor.
Oh, Quentin clothes watching Quentin's in here.
Quentin.
Oh, he, uh, he was at the wedding over there at autumn Oaks.
So glad to have him join us over here tonight.
But um, yeah, so that's the kind of UKC world wheels.
And I finished 14th.
We had a good run.
I think there's 3,600 dogs that entered by the time you take the dogs that all entered
an RQE.
I think they said there was like 3,600 and I'm probably going to get these numbers off.
So y'all don't burn me at the stake.
There's 3,600 dogs entered.
I think there was 580 something that went to the zones and then they broke it down to
the top one.
Oh wait.
Then they broke it down to the top 27 wheels.
And I finished 14th, uh, trace Searles him and, um, storm Hayes.
They finished 15th.
I think Nick Emil finished eighth, maybe, um, there's just a lot of, a lot of guys there
that I'm friends with who made the top 27 this year and went on even further.
And then obviously, you know, Casey and Lacey won the whole thing.
So out of 3,600 dog guys, I mean, can you imagine the feeling that Casey has?
Like you're the champ, you got the confetti shower, you've got everybody watching and
you beat 3,600 other dogs.
That is, that's just totally awesome to me.
Yeah, it's the one to win.
So I mean, it's, I mean, imagine think about how many dogs was in Illinois this past weekend.
I mean, between super stakes and the PKC youth world and then the top one away.
Good grief.
Yeah, just crazy.
I mean, literally the state of Illinois was just overrun with Coon hunters this week and
they put us in hunting even though it was dry.
I mean, gosh, we saw a ton of Coons.
Um, Hey, John James Larson, he's watching forest reds watching.
What's up guys.
Thanks for tuning in.
Uh, old forest, he's down there bear hunting in Virginia.
I think their early bear season is in right now, so hopefully them dogs are putting a
few bears in the air.
All right.
It won't be long.
It won't be long in the bear season.
I know it.
Like I said, their early season is in right now, September, and then it goes out October
and November comes back in December.
So, um, Basham, is there anything else that you need to cover tonight?
I see you're sitting in your local club.
You got to hunt tonight or what?
Yeah, yeah, we got a few showing up.
Awesome.
They watching the live production of the Simper Dog and Dog on Tuesday.
Yes.
I'll get a podcast.
Oh, old Dale Huff.
He said, I bet all the bucks in Illinois left because of the Ken dogs.
So I will say this.
I will say this.
I was Monday and I was hunting late round with Josh Watson and, uh, I stayed a third
round to work on my dog a little bit.
And it was about five o'clock in the morning and I was coming out of the woods and I looked
over to the right.
I've got a video of it.
Massive buck sitting 20 yards from where Morgan had treed.
Just sitting there in the brush, just watching us just laying there.
Yep.
I took a very similar video in the top 27.
We were heading to wheels his last tree of the night and, uh, there was a big, nice mainframe
eight point, but just standing probably 50 yards from where wheels is hammering and he
never left.
I took a video of it.
I put it on my Snapchat.
You saw it.
Um, Hey, Dean Daughtery commented.
He said they had a guide that treat 21 Coons in three casts and saw 36 total for the UKC
world.
That's pretty good.
I wonder if it was that little, um, Oh, the little English, this chord nine 50.
What was it?
Um, Friday night, early around Friday night, that little English blue dogs scored, um,
nine 50.
Yeah, I don't know.
Albert Ashcraft said, send the Eagle to the location.
The Eagle, you couldn't even hit the broad side of a barn last year.
We don't need to be sending you no locations for bucks.
I think you sat in the nest more than anybody I ever saw last year.
Goodness gracious.
Dean Daughtery said, yes, it was.
So, um, my next time.
Yep.
Uh, I think we are going to get ready for the Indiana state UKC hunt, the UKC, Indiana
state hunt, um, October 4th and 5th.
It's going to be in Monticello.
So it's going to be a two day hunt and one day show.
That will be your UKC, Indiana state championship.
Um, looking forward to seeing everybody there.
If you guys can make it to Monticello that weekend, we'd love to have you there.
Dale said the Eagle, he'd be out of breath by the time he got there.
Hey, you know what we need to do?
We need to get Dale on here for a body.
Yes.
We need to interview the SIG, the, uh, sophomore super stakes winner.
He'd have some good commentary.
We need to get old Dale and Bucky on here.
Yeah.
We need to get both of them at the same time and just let them have like Duke it out.
I'm going to be hilarious.
What's your next one?
Uh, who knows with me, you know, a lot of times Thursday night I'll look around and
find one.
Uh, I thought about running up to the truck hunt this weekend, but spots still kind of
down and, uh, I'm not ready to put Morgan in any big hunts yet.
I got a few things that I want to fix on him before I put him in any hunt.
So my next one will probably be the AKC.
I got you.
Hey, Lindsay Morrow just joined us.
Let's give a shout out to Lindsay Morrow.
She is a co-owner on the only red bone dog to make the top one Oh eight, the, uh, the
gambler dog that T Mac Dominguez was hunting old Tony Dominguez.
He was hunting that.
I think Lindsay's a co-owner there with Alan Hulotta.
So congratulations to Lindsay for getting the only red dog in the top one Oh eight.
Oh yeah.
Hey, let's give a shout out to Andy and your family for winning the UKC world bench show.
Big shout out.
Uh, you know, it's kind of funny guys, you know, Bryce, me and Bryce were talking on
the phone and he goes, you know, it's kind of weird.
He said, this is the only family I've ever met or been a part of that.
It doesn't matter whether Curtis is handling Nikki is handling or Andy is handling when
one wins it.
They all win it and it's, it's a family affair.
And so a big, big shout out to your family, uh, that you were lucky enough to marry into
and, uh, you know, big shout out on y'all's big wins.
Yeah, man.
I mean, it was pretty crazy.
I know, you know, Curtis and his daughters, they'd been breeding these line of red bones
for as far back as the girls can remember.
Kurt's always packed a red bone and in the woods and in the show.
And you know, they, this is just years and years of hard work for them.
Um, and that dog has been good to him.
He's won one of the nationals now he's won the world.
Um, he's just been a good dog.
So yeah, congratulations to them.
Old Billy Dwyer said, Billy D is watching.
Congratulations to you and your family on a great world hunting show.
That has to be some awesome times.
Billy, it is buddy.
I sure appreciate it.
We thank you for that.
It is.
It is awesome times.
Hopefully, you know, Ruby will be here next week or next year.
Sorry at the UKC world.
I know you said you were going to get her tuned up.
Dale Huff said if Bucky is lucky, I will train him another one so he can win a few cats.
Hey, speak of the devil.
Her Andy, her ears must be burning.
She just joined us.
So do what I just said must be.
Yeah.
Her ears must been burning.
So yep.
Congratulations to Andy, Kurt, Nick and all them.
Like I said, on that world championship with Wabash River lost highway, they call him Hank.
How much you think how much you think the price would go up for Bucky's next dog off
of Dale?
I mean, as much stuff as they give each other, I'd have to say Bucky's gonna have to dig
deep in them pockets to buy another one off Dale.
I have dig deep.
I know that old cane dog come from up there in Michigan.
So all right, buddy.
Well, hey, I think we've shined this tree.
Is there anything else that you need from me or anything else you want to cover?
Nope.
It looks like to me.
Mine is sitting.
Let's go.
Mine is sitting.
Roll on out.
All right, guys.
Hey, well, thank you so much for joining us on this dog and Tuesday.
We sure appreciate everybody hopping in here and talking with us, hanging out, giving us
some history lessons here.
I mean, the comments and interactions were good.
We try to get them all on here.
We try to get everybody a little bit of a little bit of shout out here whenever you guys
interact with us.
We sure appreciate it.
These are super, super fun for us.
Hey, thank you guys for, you know, working with us on our schedules here.
I know Bash and I haven't been the most consistent.
It's been busy.
This is not something we do for a job.
This is not something we do to make money.
We don't make a dime at this really.
And you know, a little bit of sponsorship that we had covered our initial startup cost.
And after that, we're just hanging out with you guys.
So this is something we do.
It's just two brothers who enjoy hanging out.
We enjoy the comrade.
We love talking dogs.
We're going to get back into talking to a little bit more than coon dogs here.
I want to get back into that.
You know, we've been on a coon hound kick here a lot lately, but there's a lot more
interesting facets to the hound world that I really want to dive into.
So we're gonna have to dive back into it here in the winter time.
We've both just been getting dogs ready for these hunts.
I've been busy trying to get rafters, farm going.
Our online meat store is coming soon.
It should be a couple of weeks.
We'll have everything ready to go there.
Pretty pumped.
We'll be offering beef, chicken and goats.
So that's coming, coming.
Anybody here in local to northern Indiana, be ready for it.
We'll be rolling.
I'm good.
Are you good?
Hey, we're good.
Hey, Shane, Shane was too scared to join us.
He had to send his wife over here.
Oh, Laura just hopped on.
Shane was shaking in his boots.
He didn't want to get talked about.
So he sent his wife over here.
All right, guys.
Well, Bachelm and I are good.
Hey, good luck tonight, buddy.
I'm going to get off here.
I'm going to get this.
I didn't get it posted for those who weren't able to join us live here.
