Facts and opinions about the world hunt

Fact) Sam treed a coon and won his cast from the rqe to the final cast. No other dog he hunted with out scored him, that makes him the winner. I would say that makes him sure enough a COON DOG.
Why does it matter what breed he is? I don't care if he only has 3legs, no tail and only one eye, he's a coon dog.

Fact) ukc could careless if anyone treed a coon or not! Ukc's only concern is to get the money out of your pocket and into theirs.

Opinion) I'm sure that the host club done their best to provide good guides and judges. It's called coon hunting for a reason, not coon treeing. I know people spent a lot of money and time to get qualified and make the trip to Georgia but sometimes it tuff to get one treed

congratulations to all of you that won from rqe to the zones and the finals!!!!!!!! Job well done to you all.

Is it possible your second fact should be listed under opinions?

No sir I believe it to be a fact.
Add up all the money they take in at the rqes then to the zones, its a pile of money. I understand that the hosting club get some of that money but what do the hunters get out of it. A trophy and a picture in a magazine?
Also I understand that ukc has bills to pay,

#2 is not a Fact. You have an opinion that UKC does not care if your dog/s tree a coon or not and that they are just in it for the money. Please look upthe the meaning of FACT and repostthe with the evidence to back up your claim. UKC is primarily a registery, whose purpose is to maintain a record of our dogs pedigree. UKC does indeed hold many events for the various dog breeds. Everyone entering one of these events knows before hand what the reward of winning one of these events will be, so no one should expect something different. College football and basketball ball is a megabucks windfall to the schools, but the players do not reap any money during their college careers. ( education and spotlighting their skills excluded) Rewards come in many ways from winning a UKC event or a college ball game. You can play the game or sit on the bench, the choice is for each of us to decide. IMO. Dave
