What Are the Differences Between ASFA and AKC Coursing Titles?
They are issued by different organizations. AKC titles are recorded by the American Kennel Club and are printed out on official AKC documents such as official pedigrees and on championship certificates and are published in the AKC Awards publication. ASFA titles are issued by the American Sighthound Field Association and are published in FAN (Field Advisor News). They will not appear on official AKC issued pedigrees. This does not mean that the ASFA titles are in anyway inferior. In fact in my opinion and experience the LCM is the most difficult lure coursing title to earn. The AKC JC is the easiest, the SC next, the ASFA FCh next and the AKC FC is next.
