Guys this happened to a kid. He was intimidated by the judge. Who wouldnt be as a kid hunting in a big hunt like Winter Classic drawing out with a big time handler and breeder. I think some of you have given this boy too hard a time. He did not complain, in fact he did not even bring it up to UKC. He took his lesson and went on his way. I hate to see things like this get blown out of perportion by people who were not even there. The kid handled the situation the best he could. The other cast member did what he felt should be done. UKC took it all in advisement and did what they felt should be done. It is over. Please do not make the young fellow feel that he should not hunt any more because he does not know the rules good enough. Imagine yourself as a teenager drawing out with a big time handler. You look up to these type of folks and think they know much better than you do. As a kid you are not going to make a big deal out of it. You are going to take your lesson and get it over with. I think way too many folks get on this board and let half knowledge get them out of countrol. Take a break before you post and realize you may not know all the facts of any situation. We need to nurture the youth in this sport, not knock them down. The older handlers know what they are doing. If they have no conscience, it will all catch up with them in good time.
