The Bandit Bash is under way in Reading, Michigan. This is the first hunt using this format. 27-dogs, all 3-dog casts throughout. The first of two rounds tonight are happening as we speak. The nine cast winners from tonight will advance to tomorrow night's semi-finals and will be in the money.
I will update this post as the night rolls on, and into the morning as results come in from Mike Ream and Tracy Thompson with the host club, the Reading Coonhunters Association.
