For all of you who are lamenting the fact that there are no HTX tests scheduled in your area, are YOU a member of a club? If not, you are the reason there are none in your area. If you ARE a member, quit complaining and get some scheduled. One person can run these events! Yeah, that's right, ONE PERSON is all it takes. This isn't something a club needs to ponder at length, there is no cost to hold the test. You can't lose money. If I hold the test and one person shows up, I'm his/her judge. If everyone that brings a dog brings one other person with them, you got a judge for everyone that shows up. ANYONE that can read and write and has coonhunted can judge. There is almost no effort involved in holding one of these tests. I can only conclude that if your club isn't holding them, it's has to be because there is no interest.
If just one person at our club wanted to hold a hunt test, it would be scheduled tomarrow.
Jim, thank you very much. I had no idea. I have ask the ones over our club and I am a member. I know there are more that would want to do it. This knowledge getting out I think is all it will take.
As far as forceing the titled dogs to get one or forceing anyone to do anything I think they will do it on there own. The ones that can and the ones that can't won't.
Thanks Jim you just made my weak. A lot of us that can't keep up in the hunts will love this.
Oh one more thing how do we get the paper work for all this? Threw the club or from UKC?
