Re: Serious Question about New Rule “ Calling wrong dog”

First off, I AM A FAN OF THE NEW RULES, I AM EXCITED TO NOW HUNT UKC AND ITS BEEN A LONG TIME
HOWEVER, as a competitive hunter I think the calling the wrong dog rule needs amended ASAP!!!
In the video it says that rule was put in for the kids and I am all for the kids not being afraid or punished more making a mistake on the first offense
BUT, if it is just a warning the first time instead of a minus you can bet your last dollar that there is going to sure enough be some quick calling of the first dog that barks because there is no repercussions to borrowing that dog for first strike. If you get away with it there is a 100 you just got and you can do it again the next drop because you got away with it the first time without receiving the warning so what going to stop you from trying for a free 100 the next drop
I know it is Honor Rules but I live in the real world and know how the ball bounces.
I agree 100 percent and thought the exact same thing when I watched the new rule video last night. This is a bad revision. Yes, a good judge will catch it, but when there is no punishment and a guy just has to say "oh well it was worth a try", then your going to see it happen a lot. Strike the wrong dog and you should be minused. I'm all for looking the other way for kids, but not adults.
