Sorry resending this post without the garble I keep forgetting
that my one email seems to ad a bunch of garble onto the posts
when they go to the list
If dogs that hadn't been entered in the regular futurity hadn't been
entered there would have basically been no amateur futurity.

I don't agree with this statement. Now grant it alot of the dogs that
were entered in the amateur
Venue were Also in the regular futurity this year but I think that had a
lot more to do with seeing how things were going to work out with the amateur
venue and there were only a few that wanted to give it a try.
I think it would be better if we had to choose which venue to
participate in. That way the same animal isn't winning both and it gives
someone else a chance to take another quality
Animal on to the national.
Or enter both but if your animal does win in the regular futurity
(BIF, BOF, or any of the reserves)
Then they are no longer eligible to
Compete for the amateur division. Somewhat like the Novice class if you
win a point you no longer compete in novice. I think that would make if more
fair for the dogs AND handlers
It would be a little more encouraging to be in an amateur setting knowing
your not competing with
Yesterdays Big winners.
As far as limiting who can handle any amateur should be ok (Don't
think judges should be included )
Why not on the Amateur entry form have a statement such as they do with
the Junior handlers
It states : By signing the entry form I certify that the Junior
Showman does not now, and will not at any time , act as an agent/handler for
pay while continuing to compete in Junior Showmanship
I'm sure this could be reworded to fit the amateur entries somehow.
Just a few thoughts.
