I will say this. I love doubleheaders. It has given me much more motivation to travel to smaller hunts that are 2-4 hours away. Two chances to win are much better than one, especially when you hunt the culls I do.
I have been to several UKC doubleheaders now. The turnout to the late-round is usually about the same as the early round. Occasionally some don't want to hunt late, but you typically pick up a few for the late-round that didn't make the deadline for the early hunt. So it usually all works out.
$30.00 is too much, in my opinion, for a poor boy hunt. I pay it and don't ask any questions. I figure each club knows what they need to stay afloat, so I pay it and don't push the issue. Our club shares a community-building, so we don't have a huge overhead to worry about, we make donations to help with the facility.
The only downfall I have had to them is that it takes some of the fun out of it. Most of the doubleheaders I attend, everything is a HUGE rush, and most clubs don't leave enough time in between them. I feel like I am running around hectic and can't stop and relax and enjoy the rare occasion that I do get a cast win. The pros definitely outweigh the cons, and I will continue to go and be rushed !!!

People accuse me of being color blind. The truth is I will hunt red ones, blue ones, black and white ones, yellow ones, black and tan ones, or even brindle ones; Just as long as they are English!
