A GREAT DAYS' HUNTING, WITH A BAD ENDING ☹️ 

Yup 😅💸💸💸

Me too, I’ll miss the view 🥲

Thank you 🙏

I really love watching the hounds, they’re really special! Thanks so much for watching 🙏

She would literally never stop if I didn’t take a pull 😂

Literally 😂

WHO’S BEEN KISSING U ZACKY?!?

💙

Glad you liked the different view! Thanks for watching 🙏

💙💙

Thank you! And thanks for watching 🙏

Thanks so much for watching 🙏

There will be an update vlog live this week 💙

No problem 😊

Thank you for watching 💙🙏

Thank you 🙏 I’m posting an update vlog this week ❤️‍🩹

She was going so well, it’s really a big shame! Thanks for watching 🙏

She was loving it 🥲 And yes Rob loves it too, so it’s a win win!

😊

So they’re really only trained to hunt the scent of a person, but if they did get another scent that would take them off the line, our job as the whips is to guide them back on track. So basically as long as we’re doing our jobs properly it’s all ok!

No I have no idea what that is! Thanks for watching 💙🙏

No such thing as silly queries! I don’t use studs, in fact I’m not sure anyone does (I may be wrong!) because the ground is generally very good, if anything there’s just a slight bit of mud so as long as you don’t wang it round corners then all should be ok 😅

​@@footluceeventing Thank you for your response. It's interesting how here on the West Coast of the U.S., we've become so soft that we use studs on grass even for a 3-foot hunter course consisting of 8 fences. 🫣

She loves to worry me! Thanks for watching 🙏

🥴🥴😵‍💫😅

She is pretty unstoppable! Thanks so much 🙏

People. She explained it in the video.

It's Laragh not Laura.pronounced as Lara.

Thank you 🙏

Thanks for watching 💙🙏

Good question! So there were two hounds that weren’t keeping up as well as the others, so there was always a whip making sure they were still on the line/ ok. After the second line they actually both got picked up and taken back in the land rover to rest! We still had 9 hounds hunting which is plenty 😊 Thanks for watching 🙏

@@footluceeventing Thank you for the quick response :D

Btw, I don’t know if her name ends in ie or y 🤣🤣🤣

WHAT DO YOU MEAN TORTURING AN ANIMAL??

BTW I JUST USE UPPER LETTERS

A fox being torn apart is torture for an animal.@@The_bi_therian

They aren’t FOX HUNTING. Watch the video before commenting and assuming.

I AGREE THEY AREN'T FOX HUNTING WATCH THE VIDEO BEFORE COMMENTING

Hunting people! 🏃🏃

@@footluceeventing oh. So its just like a ride on the horses but you’re chasing someone??? I was worried it was fox hunting.

@@SILHOUETTED..PHILOSOPHY it’s called ‘clean boot hunting’. The runners will run about 5k each line, then the hounds go onto the scent and catch them, I have a whole playlist ‘Nar Valley Bloodhounds’ if you want to learn more

@@footluceeventing oh! That makes sense now, thanks for explaining it!

My favourite pastime 😈

Everyone in the entire field can hear us coming 😂 Thanks for watching 🙏

@@footluceeventing😂❤

Thank you for watching 🙏

Becki has the best snacks 😍

She is a bit accident prone at the moment 😅 Thanks so much for watching 💙

No not at all! There are several people that wear them, I just don’t personally as it doesn’t fit over my hunt coat 😂

Thanks so much for watching 🙏

She is still crazy after hunting, she was very happy to be turned out with a big pile of hay 💙

Thank you 🙏

Thank you 🙏

I hope so, I think she’d have a great time!

Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 😰

Thank you 🙏

No one is allowed to ride ahead of the master of the hunt, all the other riders have to stay behind the master of the hunt.

Thanks for the questions! Here’s my answers: 1. As long as the huntsman gives directions, then you can overtake him. For example, Charlie asked me to go up ahead at one stage and push the hounds over closer onto the line, which I did, then I hung back to let him go ahead of me. 2. In the event that something like that happens mid-hunt, *touch wood it doesn’t’!* then I guess the whips would take the hounds home, as I’m not sure it would carry on. I’ll need to clarify that though! 3. I’m not really sure what you mean by flights as never heard of the phrase, but I’m guessing you’re reffing to the difficulty of the line(?) As a rule you have to be a capable rider and aware of your horse/ other people so that everybody stays safe. The country is lovely, with great ground and all the jumps are optional 😊 That also kind of answers the last question too! Thanks for watching 🙏

Lucy, Thank you so much for getting back to me and my non-horsey husband on his questions. I think if something dreadful happened to the Huntsman then the hunt would be stopped and like you say the Whips get the hounds back to the trailer while others seek help for the Huntsman. Something similar happened to me many, many moons ago on a hack. Horses & ponies were spooked and flighty afterwards. For some reason the horse I was riding (the sweetest Welsh Cob you can imagine) kicked out at a mare, missed and totally smashed in the rider's kneecap. Need I say more? The rider was escorted to the nearest pub to get an ambulance (the days of no mobile phones & in the middle of nowhere for an ambulance to get to) while the rest of us headed back to the stables. In regard to flights, I think it is best said that a very large hunt (normally on the opening meet of the season) split people into groups. First flight adults, second flight kids on ponies. You would be mad to hunt not being a capable rider though there are some out there and unfortunately are the ones that can cause problems from my experience. Safety is Rule # 1 as far as I'm concerned. Once again, many thanks for replying and perhaps a Vlog in the future might be with Charlie and or Justine to explain Hunting Etiquette etcetera.@@footluceeventing

About 14-17 miles on average

@@justinewardeventingWowzers! I bet you’re exhausted after a day out! X

What she said 😂

She didn't even show any footage of her walking after she was lame so not sure how you've managed to come to that conclusion 😂
