Sunday 20th September 2020

Inanda Country Base

Following the success and popularity of last year’s “Gentle Introduction to Hunting” event, we will be holding the first one of 2020 THIS Sunday.  this is a special mounted hound exercise designed to introduce riders and their horses, who have not hunted before, to the fun of hunting.  Come and introduce your new or young horse to the hounds and to being part of a field of horses. This will be a perfect opportunity to introduce you and/or your horse to the great sport of drag-hunting.  Booking is essential as can only accommodate  limited amount of riders.

We will assemble on The Bowl (in front of the ICB Clubhouse) at 08:30 am for 08:45 am.  Experienced members of the Rand Hunt will be there to meet you.  Lindsey Black, our field master for this exercise, will collect  your payment receipt and take you through guidelines for safe riding in a group of horses.  At 9:00am, she will take the field to the kennels to meet the hounds as well as out hunt servants – the huntsman and whippers-in.

The Rand Hunt servants will then set off with the hounds and the field master will take the field at  trot on a route through Inanda Country Base, planned to include small inviting, non-compulsory jumps.  This will give everyone the opportunity to experience moving and jumping in a group at a slow and controlled pace.

The field master and riders will then meet up with the hounds and hunt servants and follow the hounds on a short circuit before returning back to the kennels.

If you have always wanted to come hunting but have been too nervous to try it, or if you have a young horse that needs to be introduced to the concept of moving with a group of horses, this is perfect for you!
