What An AWESOME PKC National Championship - THANK YOU!!!

[Jerry Moll]

The 2017 PKC National Championship held this past week in Flora, IL was another of the many outstanding events held at the historic Charley Brown Park over the years! This hunt is one of PKC's most prestigious displays of proven hounds and great handlers and it most certainly did put them to the test. The Flora Coon Club, along with help from the Claremont club did a great job of providing quality guides, good food and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Thanks go out to all who judged, guided, served on panels or helped out in any other way. A HUGE thank you goes out to everyone who traveled to Flora to join us for the 2017 PKC National Championship! For all this we say, THANK YOU!

As always, the hunting at Flora was amazing; including three qualifying nights, quarter-finals, semi-finals and the Final Cast, 390 raccoon were scored on!! There are not many hunt locations where you can pull that off!

Sportsmanship reigned supreme at this year's National Championship; there as only one question brought back to the panel in nine rounds of competition.
