I would have no problem with that.....may not five, but at least two for the Group and three for BIS. ASCA uses a panel of 3 "Senior Breeder Judges" to do BOB at their National....and the IABCA shows sometimes uses 2 judges for the Groups and 3 for BIS. Amazingly, consensus usually takes very little time........each judge makes their #1 and #2 choice and they are assigned points. The points are tallied and the top point winner is BIS....#2 is Reserve BIS. ---Kay Reamensnyder and Betty Doerpinghaus ---bedkar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ---VISIT OUR WEBSITE:http://home.earthlink.net/~bedkar > [Original Message] > From: Edwin Hill <edwinx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > To: <EKOLAN1@xxxxxxx>; freelist <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: 12/12/2005 2:49:05 PM > Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: GSD Judges > > Fred!...
