There is a size limit 16 inches. The scoring system (like big pack). Is based in the old fox hunters rules. Hunting trailing speed and drive endurance giving you a HGA or highest general average. Unfortunately there are deer here in sc, Shocking and tracking collars are allowed and do not have to be handed over to the master of hounds however use of shocking equipment or tone is not allowed unless the dogs are running off-game.
Hope this helps

Re: ABC Fast Pack-New Format for Hunters and Trialers
Dog count is getting higher everday. We are looking at having between 75 to 100 dogs. The higher the dog count the bigger the prizes for the end of the series high point hound. All series hunts will have $300 worth of prizes, plus certificates and winners trophies. We still have good numbers available. We have good running grounds with lots of rabbits and briars. We are also giving owners a chance to go into the woods and see first hand how their dogs are stacking up against the competition. We would love to have you join us. We are also planning on having a 2 day trial in late April with double the prizes. If you are interested call Brian Hicks at 843-495-7397.
