Implemented in 2008, this exciting program for UKC Hunting Beagles known as the Black Gold State Race Series runs from January 1st through December 31st of the calendar year. Cast wins at any UKC Licensed event, with exception to WQE's or events where all categories draw out together, are recorded and result in State Race points throughout the year. Points are awarded as follows:

Registered
1st place - 10 points (requires competition)
2nd place - 8 points (requires at least two plus point cast winners)
3rd place - 6 points (requires at least three plus point cast winners)
4th place - 4 points (requires at least four plus point cast winners)

The top 16 All-Age hounds and the top four Junior's in each State/Region will be invited to a state runoff. All Overall runoff winners, both All-Age and JR's, will then be invited to a national runoff on Friday morning at the UKC Hunting Beagle Nationals in Coshocton, Ohio in April. All dogs having earned the most points in each State/Region as well as State and National Runoff Winners will be recognized and recieve their awards at the banquet on friday night of the Nationals. Watch for a list of State Runoff dates and locations in the January Issue of American Beagler and Coonhound Bloodlines.

Only the top 16 dogs in each state/region will be invited to the runoff. Ties will be broken via the following:

1) Dog with most cast wins.
2) Dog with most First Place Wins.
3) First dog to earn the points involved in tie.
