A good, traditionally strong, club just down the road from us drew 8 dogs on Fri. night and 5 dogs on Sat. night at their UKC hunts just a couple weeks ago.
I've inspected at both HTX's our club has had and while I can't say I'm fired up enough to put a dog in them, I can face the fact that this is already just about as popular as a nite hunt.
After 2 events this HTX is on the same level of participation, or better than the UKC, PKC, or club hunts we've had, for years.
IMO, one thing that's going to have to happen for this to work is that non members that come should expect to be asked to hang around to inspect someone else's dog. Even at that it may take 2 or even 3 rounds to get everyone in. Its just too much to expect a club to have 10 nonhunting inspectors lined up. Even the ones I talked to that drove the furthest, were willing to do this.
