In this week's episode I am joined by my good friend Andrew Bray. Andrew has been coon hunting since he was only two years old. He grew up following Leopard Curs and later Treeing Tennessee Brindles. We talk about both breeds throughout the podcast as well as the place of the cur dog in the formation of this country. Andrew is the current President of the Treeing Tennessee Brindle Association and always willing to talk dogs if you have any questions.

178. Cur Dog Man
In this week's episode I am joined by Doug DeRossett. Doug is a lifelong cur dog man. He has traveld the country coon hunting with various hounds and curs but has always kept a few good cur dogs. He is a coon hunter that likes a fast track dog that has the brains and nose to handle a tough track. Stephens Curs is where he had the most luck and keeps them even now. Coon hunting was so important to him as a young man he saved up and bought his first coon dog before he could even drive. If you enjoy a good story be sure to tune in as Doug tells a few from his years of hunting!

In this week's episode I am joined by Zach Ahart. Zach is a Plott man that bear hunts in the hills of southern West Virginia. We talk all about his line of Plotts. He was raised hunting but during high school got a way from keeping hounds. Less than a decade ago he decided it was time to commit and get back into bear hunting along with raising/training his own hounds. He has become very succesfull in that short time.

In this week's episode I am joined De'Andre Williams. De'Andre or Dre as his friends know him is a die hard coon hunter from South Carolina. He got bit by the coon hunting bug in high school when him and a buddy tried out an old hound. From the first night of hunting with that old hound he knew was destined to be a lifelong coonhunter. He has had some struggles and trials along the way but has been doing well in the competition hunts around SC and the surrounding states.
