Settle a disagreement. If a dog comes into the tree after the judge arrives and a coon is seen, dog is minused 25 tree points. What happens to the strike points?

Rule 5 b no dog to receive minus points for coming into tree after judge arrives unless a coon is seen and the dogs treeing are awarded plus points


Rule 5 (b) always applies to any and all dogs that come in after the judge arrives. Forget about anything else for a minute. The rule states so much as the only time a dog is penalized for coming into the tree after the judge arrives is if a coon is seen in the tree. If a coon is seen, the dog is to receive its strike points minused. If the tree is scored any other way (slick/minus, circle, delete, scratched for off game), the dog receives circle strike points. This applies even to Nite and Grand Nite Champions in the event of off game. 5(b) takes precedence over any other rule, such as 6(g), where Nites and Grands are scratched for off game

Under rule 4 a if coon seen minus strike points. 4 h minus 25 tree points treeing but not declared when judge arrives.
No where do you minus tree for coming in after judge arrives that I know of.

My mistake, the question was suppose to say BEFORE not after judge arrives. I got to start proof reading my posts before hitting the submit button.

If a coon is seen, minus strike points. If tree is slick or offgame (registered divison) the dog would be assigned 25 tree points and strike and tree points would be minused. If tree was circled, dogs strike points are circled.

Here is an old advisor column that is somewhat outdated but gives a good breakdown of "treeing but not declared treed". Obviously the "next available" terminology has now been changed to simply read 25
