Hands On Judging Contest
Participants will evaluate and place a class of 4 animals. These animals have been previously evaluated and placed by the ARBA Judge.
* An ARBA Standard of Perfection will be available for contestants to use as they judge the class. Contestants will have seven minutes for this evaluation. Answers will be recorded on a judging contest placing card. * Based on the class placement of the ARBA Judge, a Standardized Hormel Computing Slide used for scoring judging contests, will determine how close each participant is to the judge's placement and how many points each participant will earn for the class. * Tiebreakers / call-backs will be provided when necessary. * A review of class placement will be conducted at the conclusion of the contest.
