UKC World Championship; Rogersville, Tennessee - After last weekend's zone semifinals the World Championship comes down to the final 100 hounds also known as Finalists. The Finalists will be back in action starting on Thursday night in Rogersville in their quest of "World Champion".
The Hawkins County Coon Club in Rogersville will play host club for the Finals. Club Officer Ron Stroud has taken on the chief responsibilities as guide and judge coordinator. The UKC has been working with Stroud throughout the year on this event and found him to be very organized and willing to do whatever it takes to make this event the best possible for our Finalists as well as all involved. We look foward to continue working with Mr. Stroud and the Hawkins County Coon Club this weekend in Rogersville!
The following list denotes the Top 100 Finalists followed by Breed breakdowns and States Represented of both the Nite Hunt and World Championship Bench Show.
