« on: May 30, 2020, 02:33:06 AM »
Is an 18' tunnel counted as 15' or 20'?

I don’t know how the “home office “ will rule but as a judge, I couldn’t fit it safety under the dog walk so I wouldn’t call it a 20’. I would adjust the yardage for the course at a trial. I have no idea how one does that for VT.

With regards to calculating SCT for a VT (I'm assuming you are asking for a VT SCT calculation), you would count it as a 15' and in the field for 'adjustments', put in 1 yd for the extra 3'.

You also need to understand that an 18 will not safely work under either contact.  So use it as a stand alone tunnel.  Thanks

I'm having difficulty making time with all 3 dogs in Tunnelers VT with all 18' tunnels. I'll try adding the 1yrd per tunnel and if we make time then I'll submit. Thank you.

No contacts here at home so we're being safe.  :)
