I went and watched a few midwest trials a few years back and enjoyed it very much and thought a lot of it! I'm not a big trialer but I get out watch hounds go from time to time and keep up on some of the hounds that are making noise. My question is do you guys feel the overal judging has stayed consistent from years past and is there a lot of new judges now from just a few years ago. I'm just curious as I thought they did a fine job when I watched.

Lot of new young judges & still some veterans from time to time. I think the clubs try to get the most honest guys they can. I haven't judged with any of the new ones , but I have only heard good things about them.

In my opinion the "Midwest" is doing a good job with their judges.
