Hunt Director has the responsibility to develop a panel to hear any and all questions. If a question comes in that may directly affect placement of the Hunt Director's Dog, That Hunt Director has the ability to tip the scales in his direction, by choosing a panel that is persuaded by their friendship, to vote in a manner that is supportive of the Hunt Directors dog's placement.
And even if they didn't vote out of friendship, it still has the implication that that vote may have been done out of friendship, when in fact it was not.
Dave,
You have a point and I'm sure that would be something to consider although currently the HD's dog can be hunted by another handler, so your example above can still happen with a NON hunting HD. There are no rules that I know of that will totally do away with the buddy system HUNTING or NON HUNTING.
Corey,
You're answer of "-Issues that arise (that result in a cast returning to the clubhouse) are not handled promptly or effectively" will still happen waiting for the cast(s) to come in to form a panel.
#2 & #3 are just called "Earning their check" LOL
