One thing I have noticed over the last decade is everyone looks at a dogs ability differently. Some accept a slow and steady track dog, some do not. Some want dead loners that run a mile. I hunt 2 kennel clubs, both very different rules but I know when I sign up I'm agreeing to follow those rules no matter if I agree with them or not.
Personally, I can't ever accept a dog I'm toting around taking 2nd trees be it 30 seconds or 4 minutes into the tree. I will have words with the dog and if it's track speed doesn't improve without sacrificing accuracy then I will go to the next dog.
We all know that in UKC a dog has 4 minutes and 59 seconds to be guaranteed that 75. I hate to see this type of dog win in any kennel club but I have seen and even done it many many times. I once apologized to a guy in a cast several years ago because his dog had treed 3 coon and mine backed his on all 3 and backed another on 2. It was embarrassing for me but by the rules I was the winner. I guess the ? is can you live with that style. I can't and won't.
