Jim, to me this is too generalized a statement and the way guys bend and twist rules to save points will/can be in the future used to not take minus points because it said so here. I am sure you did not mean it the way it sounds.
It "MUST" be stated that delete is only an option when in accordance with any statement in Rule 7.As the original question pertained to Highways and such.
Rules state 4(e)strike points minus for calling dogs off trail.
After viewing some of the results to Rule Questions Allen posed it appears that these rules definitely need fuller clarification on what is and is not allowed.
I know for fact this happened in a hunt.
Two dogs were grubbing a track. Third dog not opening.
8 minutes ran a couple times. Judge says lets call time out and try for a better track.The other guy agrees .So there you have your majority and the judge would not minus the two dogs because "Majority" agreed to call time out. The third guy was afraid to question it even knowing it was wrong because the MOH threatened if any questions came back he would scratch the whole cast involved.
This happened to me too in my earlier years .
I was guiding a 4 dog cast. There happened to be a fox denned in this one area we turned out in. Well,3 dogs were struck in.Pretty soon this fox goes to barking at the three opening hounds. Mine was not in with them cause he was broke off foxes.It was pretty obvious the three hounds were trailing this fox. The judge asks a couple times what is that? I chuckled a little and said oh.there is a fox that likes to try and get the dogs after it in here.Boy,did three grown guys start getting the shifty feet.
Finally judge states lets catch these dogs and get out of here.I protested they could not without calling minus.MAJORITY RULES !! Cast agreed . No one took minus points .
