Autum hunting part II 3/09/07


Recommended Posts

Our pack has already had one and a half brace to our early season tally, I missed the first couple of outings as I went back home to Swansea....

 

Monday evening a handful of us went out on foot, this years entry have been going well and seem like they been hunting for seasons... It was a warm day and very dry in the evening, not a lot of scent about, saying that, nothing came out of cover that we actually saw... hounds weren't speaking on anything, they pushed up through the glen working through the tight brambles...

 

on the way down to the first draw

bottom of the glen, as you can see the sun was doing it's best to lift scent...

More of a photo opportunity and hound exercise than a proper hunt...

Cover is still high and very little gaps in the hedges, form an orderly queue

This years entry all in at the mark, all speaking and a bit keen to say the least...

After letting the hounds especially the youngs ones have their mark, and getting them a bit back of the earth we entered a small black bitch, by the way the hounds were speaking (as you can see) we knew this wouldn't be a deep one and we were right, a mark of 0.8 on the box....

Couple of shovels full,a clean dispatch with a 32 and the hounds were given their reward...

 

Whoop whoop...
