Up to the cast/judge to determine if it will be scored as one or two trees. When that is determined, score it according to that decision.

Dog that was called treed first by handler 125 pts.
Dog that was called treed second by handler gets 75 pts.

This makes no sense one of the dogs has to be slick. If there is one coon and dogs are treed on two trees I say someone is minus.

I have always tried to determine if its split or same tree before scoring, in these circumstances. Cast majority or non hunting judges call!!

If Im judging and the dogs are on different trees but they probably look like they touch, I ask how the handlers want to score it....
Most of the time, they want the split....
Most of the time, it turns out to be the wrong choice for one of the dogs.

It kind of elimintes any hard feelings about how the tree was scored.

It does not matter if they are 60 feet apart and my dog is running back and forth between em. If they touch. In Ukc they are scored as one and you can't even minus mine.

a honest judge can see there touching no matter how far apart they are and the judge that's a 2 hour maniac calls it to his benefit every time and waits to see if he is out voted !

in this case both would have to be plus... the coon was in the tangle of the 2 trees and the judge didn't even know for sure which tree it was in

It doesn't matter if you can tell which tree the coon is in. If the judge makes the decision to score as one tree and it is not questioned at the time the decision is made then it is scored as one tree. Coon tapped one tree and climbed another. I have seen trees scored as one and there be a coon plainly in both trees. I have judged and made the call to score as one tree and this happen. As soon as two coons are seen plainly in separate trees the handler taking second tree wants 125. Sorry, you didn't question at time of call and shine time was started and is now over, your to late.

In this case it seems that the coon is not clearly in one tree or the other, eventhough it could be scored as one. The coon may be sitting in a locations where he's one at least one limb from tree #1 and also on a limb from tree #2. Whether you score it as 1 tree or 2, the coon is seen in both trees. They both get plus ponits regardless. The call is whether one gets 125 & 75 OR they split at 125 each.
If I'm the second dog, I want them split. Once we score the 1st plus, we'll score mine. Hey look at that, the coon moved to my dogs tree!!!!!
