Gone To The Dogs Hot Stove Vol. 2 With Steve And Corey

Episode Summary

This episode is the second in our Hot Stove series of conversations between co-hosts Steve Fielder and Corey Gruver. In the episode, Steve is on the receiving end of Corey’s questions about Professional Kennel Club (PKC) events.  Corey recently attended the PKC Pennsylvania State Championship and came back with a laundry list of questions.  Steve was employed by PKC from 1998 through 2004 and out of convenience, if for no other reason, agrees to play catch for the newcomer’s pitches.

Episode Notes

This is an interesting and informative look at the nation’s first and longest-standing “hunt-for-monetary-awards” organization. Many competition hunters begin their journeys in United Kennel Club events and may find the prospect of hunting for cash awards to be daunting if not all-out confusing.  This episode provides the remedy in easy-to-swallow doses.

The boys talk about the stereotypes generally attributed to money hunts and explore the basic differences in hunting for cash versus hunting for traditional commemorative awards.  Listeners that have never tried PKC or its style of competition will benefit greatly from the discussions as the boys gather around this week’s edition of coon hunting’s version of Hot Stove with Steve and Corey.
