Question on shine time

Postby John Holcomb » Sun Nov 08, 2015 2:59 pm

I have hunted PKC pretty much since it's inception and have never heard of this.We were at a hunt last night and a question came up about once a dog has been declared treed and the 5 minutes are up and all cast members are shining that tree and 2 of the other dogs come treed and their 5 minutes are up ,can those 2 members leave in the middle of the shine time on the first dogs tree to go and tie their dogs up and come back. Remember this was in the middle of the first dogs shine time . An employee of PKC said that they could leave and go to their dogs and come back and that the shine time would stop while they were gone and resume once they returned. Not the hunt time just the shine time, has anyone ever heard of this .
Thank You

I would say no as well there is no real rule about it but common sense.
If you tell the truth there is nothing to remember!

In my opinion that would be crazy. If one of the guys that leaves is leading cast how big of hurry you think he's gonna be to get back? Shoot if there split a good distance hunt could be over before they get back.

I think the rule says a judge may give permission to a handler to handle his dog on split tree. I have never seen anything about (in this case) a handlers goes to his dog when 5 is up. I would keep the cast together in a open hunt definitely never letting 2 cast members leave during the scoring of a tree.

No common sense used in anything anymore. You're telling me that a handler can leave a tree being scored and stop shining time? It takes this handler 5 minutes to get to his dog and five minutes back? That would be an extra 10 minutes your dog would be handled.

So if I have a 3 dog cast and one handler wants to leave my tree to go handle his dog what am I supposed to do? Kill my shining time with two handlers knowing I can't score my tree???

Say 4 dog cast 3 shining tree 2 see it 1 don't you would then stop shine time and get other member. To stop a shine time would be if interference would happen or a dog got in danger. Got to have a good reason can't just stop it because you want to handle your dog.Hope this help some people that are mistaking this rule
