But the big question that's not answered is was the honey bun white icing or glazed ? That could make a difference.

yall are making this harder than it is and looking for loop holes.
dog A minus both ways
dog b minus tree for being treed and not staying treed( regardless of what it is on)
dog c- minus his strike points and minus next available ( for a slick tree, a 2 foot tall broke off snag that isn't hollow, roll of wire, old scrap car, cage etc.) if he is at the end of a track and showing treed when you get there he gets next available. If he was doing what he was supposed to ie treeing on a tree with a coon , he would not be in this situation. He is just as wrong as dog A, so he get next available.

It being a trap, only comes in to play, if there is a coon in it. for obvious reasons...not fair chase and people could plant traps in there spots for quick and guaranteed points. without a coon in it, there is no reason for a dog to be treeing on it ( the dogs need some correcting!!). The coon being in the trap is what gives it the viable reason to delete.

This is just my opinion, of coarse. Like everyone, i have been mistaken before. However, the more thinking you do on it, the less common sense is applied. You can always add buts and ifs to a situation and twist one rule against another. This is a competiton hunt , which going back to the basics is did the dogs strike and tree a coon? If they did not, then take our minus, drive on and laugh back at the club with everyone and tell the story with a smile on our face. Do this and everyone will be glad to draw you at the next hunt and you will have another enjoyable one, even if the dogs don't operate properly. When you score correctly and don't make excuses, your wins have more merit in everyone eyes.

Think about this and it would apply here as the same . We all agree B dog gets 75 for leaving . The A & C is where is all the differences of opinions " You would score it same as if they had a coon in a hole .Why because a trap isn't a tree . " A gets strike & tree points ( only cause he treed his dog ) , C gets strike points only !

A -225
B-75
C-50

Charles, thats what I have been saying from the start, it might be wrong and UKC might say to delete A and C. Dog B will get minus no matter what. I would say wait and see but as long as it has taken and no UKC answer I'm assuming they hope it will go away.

A dog struck and treed , C struck only , get there and they're in a hole . Coon seen during the shine time A gets 225 + so C would get strike points only 50 + . Like I said above not being a tree I don't see awarding him (c) on tree points on a trap . Place of refuge ( Lol ) , I definitely don't see that . That's why I see it somewhat similar to a hole scoring but this hole has a minus .

If y'all don't think that a trap can be a situation all to its own and be scored with different rules then why is a hole scored with its own set of rules. Only in the case of a hole does only one dog have to "show" the hole. Other dogs can be milling all around and not get minused as long as one is barking or digging in the hole.

??? +50 on a hole with coon seen , that the dog was not treed in on?i don't believe so.The only way to get +50 on it, is if they can get their mouths on it. In this case, there would be no +225. it would be +100 for strike points only.

Brian, you do not have to be treed in on a hole to get plussed on your strike. You also do not assign tree points to one in a hole and not treed if the hole is slick.

Richard, only one has to show the hole but the others cant just be milling around. The dog showing the hole is the one in it. The others still need to be by the hole they just dont have to be in it. The wording on that one throughs a lot of people and just like a tree its up to the judge on how far they can be from the hole.

I see every ones point of view and reasons .
These are my reasons.
If the trap had of held a coon .This situation has been addressed in past times.
This is an empty box trap. It is any ones guess when it last held a coon , or even why it is setting empty in the middle of the woods, even if there was any fresh scent. Putting that aside. These dogs where barking at an inanimate object.
Whether it is a box trap or an old water bucket . A log on the ground.Maybe even a feeder tire a coon visited earlier in the evening. It is an in animate object that at one time held coon scent.
The only reason a coon cannot be scored in a box trap is because of fair chase rules
The fact that it is an empty box trap I don't think should enter into the decision because of my stated above reasons..

I have seen handlers run their dog down, call them in and many other situations and not get minused because "only one dog has to show the hole". No where does it say how close or how far the other dogs can be away. I have questioned this several times because I disagree and taken it back to several MOH and they have all ruled against me.

Let me see if this is correct. a dog strikes for 100 goes left. next 3 strike and go 3/4 mile straight in. these 3 tree in. 5 is up, you go to the tree. 45 minutes later, you get there and its a hole. you realize all 4 dogs are there now. pull them out of a hole and see a coon in it( that by some miracle the dogs did not get hold of). You are plussing the 3 that treed in on strike and tree.. and plussing the strike points on the one , that did not tree in( even if he got there 20 minutes late? Wow, I have been doing some things wrong then.... or maybe others have. i can understand plusing strike points on a dog not treed, if they catch a coon but... whatever

I don't like rule questions but I would minus both dogs that are struck and treed there is clearly no coon there. If the other dog trails away recut for 25 strike. I got a problem deleting a dog treed and showing treed on anything empty jmo.

Sorry folks. I've been advised of this question but have not had the time to research before responding. I'd first like to see what exactly has been written on box trap scenarios.

Until then, I have two questions...

1) How long have you been hunting in nite hunts?

2) How many times have you seen dogs treed on an empty box trap?

lol.
