Southland Derby at OLD 74 is now in the books. We had great running both days and some of the best judges you could ever ask for. Led by MOH Clyde Sutton and Asst. MOH Pete Warren, the hounds were covered really well and the scoreboard showed as Brim's Sugar Britches owned by Brett Bass came out on top. It took 1330 S&D and 1536 GTP to win and 1154 GTP to get in the top 10. Also a special thanks to Kenny Dean on doing an outstanding job on the Bench Show, Mike Carr with PRIDE, Randy McGovern with SHOWTIME for their sponsorship, Amy McGraw on the computer, and Joanne Murray and family handling the cooking for judges and all the hunters. It takes so many dedicated people to make a hunt come together and be a success. Thanks again!
