Joi Lansing guest stars as the unsavory but attractive "Peaches", who claims to be a belle from Georgia, in the episode "Bullet Proof" (January 21, 1958).
Sugarfoot tricks a gang into believing that he knows the location of the loot from their last bank robbery.
Gregory Walcott plays Peaches' presumed fiance, Duke McKlintock, and Don "Red" Barry is cast as Tanner.

After several episodes aired in the second season, a disappointed Hutchins complained in a letter to executive director William T. Orr that the scripts were written so that the lead character Sugarfoot was not particular needed in many of the episodes.
The action revolved around Sugarfoot who was often not a real party to the events.
Hutchins attributed writer and director Montgomery Pittman for saving the series for two more seasons by setting the tone for the redirection of the latter scripts.
Pittman directed four episodes and wrote four others.

In the second-season premiere on September 16, 1958, Will Wright returns to portray Job  Turner, a curmudgeon living alone in the desert.
Entitled "Ring of Sand", the episode is a lesson in vengeance, forgiveness, and hope.
Three outlaws, played by John Russell, Edd Byrnes, and Rodolfo Hoyos, Jr., have in a stagecoach robbery murdered Turner's son, a newly licensed medical doctor.
The men compel Turner to take them to the Mexican border, but Turner seeks vengeance by leading the trio around in circles despite the lack of water and a crippling sandstorm.
Tom Brewster's role in the episode is tangential, as Hutchins had explained in his letter to William T. Orr.
Sugarfoot was at Turner's house delivering a letter when the outlaws arrived.
Sugarfoot uses biblical quotations to soften Turner's heart, particularly when a young woman with a baby is found wandering in the desert after the murder of her husband.
Meanwhile, Russell and Byrnes launched their own ABC/WB series, Lawman and 77 Sunset Strip, respectively, just a couple of weeks after this episode aired.

In "Brink of Fear" (September 30, 1958), a lesson about the line of good and evil in the human heart, Tom Brewster attempts to help his boyhood friend Cully Abbott, using the name Todd Frye (Jerry Paris), put aside his lawless past after Abbott is paroled from prison.
Abbott's former partners in crime come into the town where he is trying to start afresh and compel him into a bank robbery.
Abbott becomes discouraged when the young woman he likes, Dodie Logan (Venetia Stevenson), has no romantic interest in him.
 When the moment of truth arrives, Abbott returns to his criminal ways, and Sugarfoot must hunt him down.
Allen Case appears as the hot-headed deputy Bud Wilkins a year prior to being cast as "the deputy" in the NBC series, The Deputy.

In a gloomy episode entitled "The Ghost" (October 28, 1958), Tommy Rettig plays Steve Carter, a troubled youth whom Sugarfoot is hired to escort to St. Louis to collect an inheritance.
The youth is falsely charged with the murder of a sheriff.
Rettig sings part of the popular western song, "The Streets of Laredo".
The episode has been called "a Greek Chorus in a Stetson hat".
Other guest stars include Ed Kemmer, Gail Kobe, and Martin Landau, who plays "The Ghost".

In "The Hunted" (November 25, 1958), based on a story in True West Magazine, Sugarfoot, while working in a railroad gang, befriends a wounded former soldier, John Allman (Mike Lane), who has become mentally unbalanced as a result of the terror of an Apache attack on his Army unit.
Allman engages in bank robbery and murder, but Sugarfoot is unable to bring him to justice because of the impatient action of a persistent posse led by Clay Calhoun (R.G. Armstrong).
Francis De Sales appears in this episode as Major Sterling.

In "Yampa Crossing" (December 9, 1958), Sugarfoot and three other men wait at a river crossing for high water to subside.
Sugarfoot has been retained to obtain a legal statement from Galt Kimberly (Harold J. Stone) regarding Kimberly's estranged 13-year-old son in Missouri, who is in line to collect an inheritance.
