The Eastern Derby was held at Old 74, March 25 & 26, 2017.

A huge thank you to Clyde Sutton for doing a terrific job mastering as well as thanks to all the judges! Thank you to David Futch and Ray Casteen for having Old 74 rocking! With the 20 judges, we had a high dog 1st day 640 speed & drive with 32 dogs over 500 speed & drive! The 2nd day started off even hotter with the high dog closing at 845 speed & drive! When the dust settled, we crowned Hound #57 Harris Swamp Katie as the winner with 1,658 GTP!

We would like to thank our sponsors Mike Carr with Pride Dog food and Terry Walker with the Hunter's Horn for everything they do!
