Master of Hounds Guidelines
Revised January 1, 1998
• Master of Hounds Personal Checklist:
One week prior to the event:
(1) Contact the club president or individual in charge of the hunt.
(2) Ask president if all materials have arrived from UKC; hunt reports, scorecards, entry slips, etc.
(3) Check COONHOUND BLOODLINES to see that the event has been properly listed in accordance with UKC rules and policies; entry times, etc.
When you arrive at the club:
(1) Check to see that the following are posted;
(a) UKC license.
(b) Entry procedure sheet.
(c) Entry deadline time.
(d) Time deadline for returning scorecards.
(2) Check to be sure qualified people are available to take entries.
• How to Take Entries:
UKC has found that the quickest way to take entries is to give an entry slip to each person entering and have them fill it out clearly and completely. They then present the entry slip completely filled out, together with their UKC Registration Certificate (bill of sale) or UKC Easy Entry™ Card to the entry taker. The club should determine at the time they accept entries if hunting Judges are used or if the handler can judge and guide. If they can, then put their entry slip in a separate container.
• Drawing Casts and Judges:
Announce on the P.A. system that you are ready to start drawing entries so that anyone wanting to see the draw will have the opportunity to do so. The drawing of entries must be done publicly.
Do not start drawing out casts until after entries
are closed at the advertised deadline time.
If an individual attempting to enter a UKC Licensed Hunt appears, in your judgement, to be under the influence of alcohol or unprescribed drugs, do not take the entry. Notify the appropriate club individual or officer of what you are doing and why.
Once entries are closed, as a matter of courtesy, draw the Grand Hunting Beagle Champions first and the Hunting Beagle Champions second. If a state requires a license or permit number on the scorecard, then make certain that this number appears on each scorecard.
We recommend the following method for the drawing of casts:
Draw the hunting Judge's or guide's entry slip from the container and place it on a scorecard. When all scorecards have a hunting Judge or guide entry slip on them, turn the scorecards face down and shuffle them. Now draw two or three entry slips to fill out each cast. Again, pre-determine how many three- and four-dog casts you will have.
B. Multiple Entries; owners having multiple entries will have their dogs drawn to separate casts if possible.
