Sportsmen's Empire - Western Big Game Hunting

The prior week’s show featuring current PKC World Championship winner Willy’s Little Ann generated quite a stir across the podcast sphere as the guests, including host Steve Fielder, allowed that Little Ann may be the best coon dog of all time.

Coon hunting entrepreneur Bruce Conkey posted his opinion of the matter on the Coon Hunting Conversations group page in social media drawing more than sixty comments in a couple of days.

In this episode Steve reviews Bruce’s contribution as well as several responses.  He then brings guest Dillon Orr to the mic to discuss the comment he posted. Florida coon hunter Mack Britt weighs in with thoughts the different types of coon dogs and the age old saw, which was better, then or now?  What determines a hunter’s preference in the type of dog he or she hunts becomes the anchor for a great conversation with a 30-minute bonus because the discussion is so darned good.  It’s truly dog talk at its finest.

There’s a different kind of bond between a handler and a police K9—one built on long hours, shared risk, and a level of trust you don’t fully understand until you’ve lived it.

In this episode, we’re not talking about deployments or war stories. We’re talking about the lessons that stick with you long after the dog retires.

How our dogs can read us before you even make a move.

How they pick up on things you don’t realize you’re showing.

And how learning from that kind of awareness can make you better—not just as a handler, but as a hunter, trainer, and person.

Because if you pay attention, those dogs will teach you more than you ever taught them.

This episode features the owners of the current PKC World Coonhound Champion Willy’s Little Ann.  Fresh off her latest in an amazing string of major wins including the UKC World Championship and the Tournament of Champions, Little Ann is writing a chapter in the coonhound record book that may never be duplicated.

In this episode John Strickland, Ashley Oxendine and Randy Smith, three of the four partners that own the reining world champion in two major registries, join Steve to tell Ann’s story to our listeners.

Partnerships in the dog world are rarely successful and often are more of a business deal than a friendship.  Not so with these guys.  Each tells their personal versions of Ann’s story and illustrates that partners can be successful and have a close personal relationship at the same time.  These guys care about their hound and they care each about the other and it shows.

This is a don’t miss listen and easily makes the list of best efforts by the Gone To The Dogs Podcasts to date.  See if you don’t agree.

Spring is finally showing up and it’s a great time to be in the woods. In this episode we talk about working hounds during the offseason, getting dogs back in shape, and keeping young dogs learning even after hunting season ends.

We also discuss ** Turkey season right around the corner and what to look for while scouting the woods this time of year.

Plus, a little fishing talk — the river has been kicking my butt lately, but the trout streams have been producing some nice Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout.
