200. 6 Time ATFA Breeder of the Year

In this week's episode I am joined by my friend Corey Dick. I met Corey a few years ago and hunted with him a few times since first talking with him. Corey has a very interesting story and fell into tree dogs 14 years ago. He has had a handful of hounds and got his first cur 4 years ago. He has since fell in love with these little meat dogs. He has now decided that is the direction he is taking his kennel. He enjoys being able to hunt the same dogs both day and night. Corey has some great insight and a refreshing take on things for only being in this way of life for a little over a decade.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://shopeliteglobal.com/ Promo Code Tree10 https://www.facebook.com/p/Animal-Housing-Solutions-Inc  https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this week's episode I am joined once again by good friend Todd Coles. I got to know Todd through the podcast we recorded over 3 years ago. If you havent listened to that one, go check it out. It is episode 33. Powered by Booster. I enjoyed learning about his little brindle feist so much that last year my son Charlie and I ventured down to Arkansas just to hunt with Todd. We had a great time. Todd has some great squirrel dogs and he is a wealth of knowledge. He is very involved with the American Treeing Feist Association (ATFA) as well and talks about some of their events and changes they have made recently. As you can tell by the title he is also the only 6 time ATFA Breeder of the Year. Be sure to listen to what Todd has going on now.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://shopeliteglobal.com/ Promo Code Tree10 https://www.facebook.com/p/Animal-Housing-Solutions-Inc  https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this week's episode I am joined by Tyler Hatcher. I met Tyler in the woods several years ago while hunting with my buddy Uncle Wayne. Tyler has a pack of White Cloud bred walkers that he devotes a lot of time too. While I have never hunted with them I have heard that they are top notch. Bear hunting has certainly been a passion of Tylers for many years but he got his start following a hound after dark and still loves to pack a good coondog up and down the road to the competition hunts. If that didn't keep him busy enough Tyler just started competing in some USDC squirrel hunts as well.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://shopeliteglobal.com/ Promo Code Tree10 https://www.facebook.com/p/Animal-Housing-Solutions-Inc  https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this week's episode I am joined by Angelo Jones. Angelo's story is a little different than the average coon hunter. Most do not think of downtown Detroit as the home of a die hard coon hunter but that is where Mr. Jones resides. Angelo's life has been surrounded by great friends and family that have coon hunted and helped him along. He has learned by watching and talking with these great men. Throughout this podcast we highlighteted a few common themes including keeping all levels of the sport open especially the entry level and then also the hound hunting communtiy that becomes more like family than friends.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://shopeliteglobal.com/ Promo Code Tree10 https://www.facebook.com/p/Animal-Housing-Solutions-Inc  https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia   

In this week's episode I am joined by Kevin Rose. Several people recommended Kevin as a guest recently. They said he was a sure enough dog man and is always packing a good dog. We talked aout hius start into the tree dog world and how he ended up with some really nice squirrel dogs. Kevin is also hosteing a few hunts in a few weeks that doubt you will want to miss if you are within driving distance. The first is an OMCBA squirrel and coon hunt on Oct. 17th and then the next day is the WTDA Virginia State Youth Hunt. These hunts are looking like they are going to a good time and a chance to see some good dog work. If you would like to attend either of these hunts the address is below.  8925 Thompson Valley Rd                                                                                                            Tazwell, VA 24651 Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://shopeliteglobal.com/ Promo Code Tree10 https://www.facebook.com/p/Animal-Housing-Solutions-Inc  https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this week's episode I am joined by my friend Perry Lambert. Perry is a lifelong leopard cur/hound hunter. We talk about the name, the breed and the transition to UKC's 7th coonhound breed. Perry was heavily involed with that transition and was the president of the breed association when that happened. Perry is a wealth of knowledge and this only covers a fraction of what he has experienced and knows about the breed.  Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://shopeliteglobal.com/ Promo Code Tree10 https://www.facebook.com/p/Animal-Housing-Solutions-Inc  https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia

In this week's episode I am joined by Bobby Taylor. It's only taken 3 years to get him on but we finally made it hapen. Bobby gew up in the squirrel hunting mecca where just like the title says every house had a squirrel dog. Bobby has has had many crossed up dogs along with purebred dogs but the Original Mountian Curs just always seemed to suit him the best. He knew many of the founding members of the OMCBA and hopefully we will dive into more of that at a later date. In this episode we talked about many of his dogs including World Champion Taylor's Shadow.   Sponsors: https://conkeysoutdoors.com  Promo Code TREETALKINTIME5 https://fullcrymag.com https://www.southernhoundhunting.com  Merch: https://treetalkin.com/collections  Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@TreeTalkinMedia  https://www.patreon.com/treetalkintime https://www.instagram.com/treetalkinmedia https://www.facebook.com/treetalkinmedia
