Question about Poor Boy Hunts

What's considered a "Poor Boy" hunt in your area?

What kind of entry fee for the show and hunt?

Most Poorboy hunts in my area are $5.00 - $15.00 . No trophy given or anything like that , just the win slip.

Our club has a Trophy or Plaque hunt for $15 show and $20 hunt. We give a nice picture plaque and often a small prize for overall like feed or a leash.

Our poor boy is $10 show and $15 hunt, we give the small bag of doggie treats to show winners and a bag of feed, alkaline batteries, or $10 walmart gift cards to cast winners. Last couple of poor boys we dis a gift bag with $12 worth of items inside.

We don't see many trophies around here. Hunts are $20 and some even $25. This is from 4 different clubs.

Hunt

iT'S my understanding that a poorboy hunt is for the club to have a ukc hunt for a lower entry fee , than a regular hunt due to not giving any kind of prizes, - trophies.( the clubs that are charging a full hunt entry fee with no trophies, or prizes is just takeing advantage of the hunter's that come to there hunt's.) If the club is having a poorboy hunt at full prise then they are abusing U.K.C. HUNT RULES and they are getting alot of money by not haveing any prizes. Poorboy Hunt means (LOWER ENTRY, NO PRIZES- TROPHIES).

Around here most Poorboys are $15-$20 with more towards $20. Clubs are dropping the number of events they hold and are trying to maximize profits.

What's up, Brogy!

It seems to be mostly $15 for the show and $20 for the hunt around here, with some exceptions. Just seems high for a "Poor Boy" event to me.

The largest trophy I have ever seen at a hunt was a $5 entry fee.

Some clubs around here have dropped shows completely. Hardly worth the effort of hauling benches to a clubhouse and for many clubs need to hire a BSJ... usually for 2-3 dogs. I think most bench shows cost about $10 but we no longer hold shows nor do I show so I'm not sure.

$20 for a poorboy hunt is about standard around here. $5 difference isn't going to make a difference in entries but makes a difference in club profits.

We charge $10 for show and $15 for hunt no trophies. Our last hunt we had 2 dogs for bench and 4 dogs for the hunt. With ukcs ridiculous fees we lose money every Ukc hunt. Don't see how we could have charged less or gave trophies. I'm actually canceling our other Ukc hunts now from lack of support from other clubs and people. Our club is located in a great location. my opinion the trophy hunts are dead mainly because of Ukc and people not willing to drive and support other clubs!
