Getting close and closer. Whos it going to be this year? Will Old Luke being wherein his number 12 again? Ant herd much from the deer dog lately Does chad or the Goat man even have dogs anymore? Herd Sonny has go it figured out from last weekends tail kicking he handed out. What about HOY Flo Jo does Sky still run dogs? Lets here some top picks?? Mine is on the ROCK STAR!!!!!

Lol yeah the old deer dog got lost from home and we never seen her again. But we are coming with a little something this year again. I can't speak for everyone else but I thank Rock will be hard to deal with this year. Looking forward to coming back.

I heard that U Got 2 Lovett Kennels is going to judge and not run dogs in the hunt so that takes Rockstar, Lemon Twist, and My Girl out of the running. I don't believe Amos Grayson is running Bell or Lily in the hunt either so that opens up 2 more spots. I would say K&K Kennels (Kidd & King) have a good shot if they run.

Well thats a game changer for sure right there. Heath will you be entering dogs or judging again this year? I wonder what it is that Mr. Green says he has that he is bringing since the deer dog is no longer available? What about Mr. Sky Is he coming an is flo jo retired now? I heard John had Famous Jamous Ready to go is that true? What about Dubose or Kidd Kennels are they coming out to play?

There's not but one man boys GOAT GOAT GOAT

Y'all ain't gotta worry about me doing any good in a hunt. I'm just there to clap and have a good time! If this hunt is half as good as the Sunshine State was then it'll be a hell of a show! See y'all there

Goat Killam Hills coming to clap maybe if they have a bench show we might be able to compete lol

Scott Head maybe someone will let me get in a pic this time so I don't feel left out 😂😂

Heath Howell I heard through the grapevine that Sonny ain't entering dogs because he's scared they can't throw up enough points up in a one day 8 hr...... Can you tell us if that's true????

Keep on downplaying Goat everybody knows you are bringing the heat and the one to beat .... word on the street is the famous John Waugh has been training you on how to make a complete hound ... just like famous jamis he is going to make a famous GOAT

Don't worry about us. We hope to maybe get close to the top ten. But we will see. Ready to come enjoy a good hunt.

Goat maybe Angie can get a pic of us clapping

Someone post a list of numbers lets see who is attending this showdown this year. Heard the pen was running great. Should be a real high scoring hunt. Be some fine long hour dogs there. Good luck men.

#1 GOAT
THE REST BOYS DOES NOT MATTER 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

I don't own a dog so I'm out farmer. All the Rambo ranch hounds belong to dog pile kennels and they are getting ready for 3 days.

Goat 🐐 🐐🐐🐐🐐has a new kennel boy "Bo gator" I bet they wearing the hinges out getting them right boys

If I'm wearing hinges out it's because I'm only 3 miles from the pen and too lazy to drive anywhere else early enough to make cast.... K&K Kennels is gone show up and show out. They already showed everyone what they could do at the last day of the Sunshine State...

Goat no worries from K&K I believe we are going to set this one out and judge also .... Richard Hardy and Vic Davis had the heat there this morning

Ryan, I've heard the wind blow before...

How many numbers are out?

60

I heard a man from MS named Kenny was coming to win it. Dont know his last name. Says he has a dog that is bad to the bone.

Let's hear it boys GOAT GOAT 🐐 🐐 🐐 BETTER GET USE TO IT HE HAS THEM RIGHT AND READY

I don't even have a good dog... I wish someone would point me in the direction of where one is so I know who to ask if I can get in a pic with them...

Be a tough hound to win it that's for sure. It's been hot and dry over here with no rain in sight. Only the tough will last till the horn blows. Better have em right that's for sure.

If it stays hot and dry I predict the running will break down and provide a chance for the quitters to quit if they are inclined to do so. 9 or 10AM will be rough. Although some of our regular hunters have dogs that run 10 and 12 hours thru the heat of the day so I guess it depends on the dogs that show up. Slow and Steady may win the race. The field of hounds at the Sunshine State did better than I thought they would on day 3 so I might be wrong again.

Heard K&K kennels been working the hinges on the gate they ought to be hard to handle and Killam Hills has had Richard Hardy pushing hounds through the gate also plus your all night hunters will have them ready for any break downs

Yeah the average leaf flippers will have the wind pumped out of them by daylight. I heard a man named Brian from over in MS had some July dogs he was bringing to do just that.

Ain't gonna be no July win that hunt gonna be a full blown walker hound b&t from Bendale, MS. He was a few points out last year, and running better now than he has all his life. Team Deets babe!! Bro Jourdan got him primed up!

A July won the 9 hour there a couple years ago. That was when they were judged the full hunt not just from daylight on. The smart thing to do is bring you a hound that won't run at night that way he'll be fresh when the judges come into the pen.

Thanks for the pump up Chad LOL. Yeah hes been looking good lately. If we can stay busy till 8 is up is my concern LOL. Be a lot of tough dogs there that run there every week thats going to be hard to deal with. Had a great time last year looking forward to having a good time this year again.

I am glad the heat is coming boys from out west but I am am afraid y'all are coming to a GOAT ROPING !!! Come on

What's the list of kennels with numbers to this hunt?
Just curious if the north Alabama boys are coming. This should be a good hunt.

Yeah let's see a lineup of all this heat that's coming.

The only lineup that is going to be needed is the line waiting to shake the goats 🐐 hand come on back

The game is resting good this week. Goat has just about wore them out the passed few weeks. Hope everyone has a good safe trip over. Good luck to all. GO GOAT!!

Rain coming in on Thursday should help conditions. High of 91 Saturday. Should be a great hunt. Goat has got em in shape from what I've heard.

Y'all keep picking on me all y'all want to.... but just remember they don't hand out tissues for tears at field trials.... #RunYourDogNotYourMouth #Woooo

After all the Goat talk I believe I'm now a Goat fan. Go get em Goat ole boy . #Wooooo!!!!!

Sounds like this goat dude is the one the look for. Home field advantage an must have some tough dogs since everyone is on him so hard. Looks like hes the winner so far. Im a fan now GO Goat.

I need some of y'all to stop by a give my dog a pep talk since y'all got so much faith in her 😂😂😂😂

Get it done goat!!!!! Me and Jen are proud of you amigo. I thought I might add on here for the folks that read thsee no name posts,but have never met Chris "swamp goat" smith. You will never meet a better guy. The man would give any of you the shirt off his back and make any of you laugh even in hard times. He works his tail off helping with the pen and conditioning his hounds. We all give him a hard time because we know he can take it, but I wanted to make a serious post to let my friend know that I don't believe there was anyone more deserving of a win. My hats off to ya bruh!
