I'm sure breed specific RQE's are at the request of the breed reps/organization, not UKC, and I'm not familiar nor have I seen any breed specific hunt event that was also a Purina Event. They could exist, but I haven't seen one nor do I see one listed for the year. Shows are a different story possibly.

That said, same as with any given weekend, one hunt definitely isn't going to make or break a hounds race to the top. If a person doesn't like the hunt listed, drive another 30-50 miles and hunt a different one...or just wait a weekend. Plenty to chose from. And before someone says "well, we only have one club within 100 miles"...so what? If a dude decides to run a purina race, he better not be too worried about the miles on the pickup.

World champ willie had 60 points he got beat out of going to the nationals by a certain breed of dogs that only had half as much.

I’m not a Purina race fan, but as I always understood...even with the changes...

The Purina race tabulations essentially begin by breed, whatever breed dog it is has to accumulate enough points against its own breed to be selected to go. Then, only in the final round of the nationals are they mixed up. So he only got “beat out” by other walkers, not an “off bred” as you referred. I agree the less popular breeds in less popular regions can get by on less Purina points, but again, it’s broken down from the get-go.
