Re: how would you judge this!

At ashland friday night
Cast heads to woods, we turn loose, dogs are tracking one by one the dogs start treeing together, as were walking to tree the judge says those two blue females are scratched. The rest of the cast looks at eachother and says what for. The judge replies for fighting, he says they were showing teeth, we argue then he says they were balled up. Keep in mind we all walked to the tree together and he is the only one who saw the dogs fight. We shine the tree, they were on a small tree tied into a den, we circle it.
We head back to the club to question the scratch, Master of hounds says if the judge saw it then he saw it. He calls on two random people, for a panel of judges, and without even hearing the story, the other two so called judges says scratch em'. The other gentleman withdrew b/c he had no ride.
haha then one of those panel judges becomes the guide and judge for his buddy and they take off to finish the hunt alone, Talk about a buddy system!
So does this mean that if I am a judge in a cast and I am worried that two dogs might beat me, I could scratch them for fighting even tho no one else saw it, and go on to win the cast. OR DID WE JUST GET OUT SMARTED
I thought with hunting judges if there was anything like this, u are all judges and it went to a vote and if then it was still undecide then the appointed judges decision breaks the tie ??? this would be my understanding of ur situation!!
Also did u stick around to find out how that dog did after he had returned ? Seems like if he wanted to cheat at that point it would have ben out in the open! like racking up 2000 points in a half hr somthing like that.
Also u are still part of that cast u can stay with him and take this other cast member back out so the dog has to compete!!! u do not have to go home, just have to leave ur hound in the truck.
