..... and would like a never used 1932 made spectacular pressy?

It would be nice if I knew who you were, and what I have was going to a good home, but if it's a total stranger, that's fine too!! :D

PM if you'd prefer.

I've got an 11 year old pony mad daughter who WANTS to hunt if that's any help! Maybe when the next lot of kids/beginners hunts come round! X
 
I have a daughter who hunts sporadically when she can - exercises hunt horses as a weekend job......I'll PM you as I'm intrigued.....!
 
I do, I have a 13 yr old who has been hunting since lead rein. Unfortunately as my horse is off for ever and ever she has to go on her own but seems to manage very well, but the others kids are all thrusters and she's not so ends up being on terminal gate duty ;) She survived this jump - only to be wiped off on the wing mirror of a parked car :p

I have an 18 yr old daughter who hunts just about every Saturday for the last 5 seasons. She's very bold and usually at the front with the Field Master. I'm pretty sure she would love a spectacular pressie!

I can't wait to find out what it is! :)

So many to chose from; I have a beautiful hunting whip, with the silver collar engraved E.C.H. Cranleigh House 1932. The engraving is as sharp as the day that it was inscribed, and the whip is original. There are no whips made today which are anywhere near as beautiful as this. I'm certain that it has never been used.

With care and some attention, it will last you for the rest of your hunting days, it's one of those rare collectables, which is also of use.

Whilst we shouldn't have conditions attached to gifts, there's one with this one. You must never sell it, and should you ever tire of Hunting, or the whip itself, then you must do as I have done, gift it to another.

Is that a deal? If it is, then PM me your address, and I shall send it off to you, and I hope that you gain as much pleasure from using it, as I have from looking at it!

Alec you do realise you have just asked a 15 year old girl to give her address to a complete stranger?

What a wonderful thing to do Alec :) We all know these whips don't come cheap and finding a good one is hard. I approve of your conditions too! Well done to the lucky recipient, I'm sure you'll look very dapper with it too and of course you'll be expected to be a pro at gates now ;)
 
That's a lovely lovely thing to do Alec, I hope it finds a worthy home.

It's so easy these days to just go out and buy the look, so to be gifted something with history like this is special and to be treasured.
 
Lovely. Just lovely.

That's how I came by my hunting whip.I was given it by a friend of the family for my 18th. It's probably technically a mans whip (but as a non hunting, non horsey person they weren't to know), but it's beautifully balanced and engraved (I forget what it says, and its on my saddle) and I shall treasure it until I give up hunting.

It certainly is :D And don't worry - I have parental permission! Thank you very very much! :D
 
What a lovely,kind thing to do.I wish I'd seen this as I've got a 7 year old and a 9 year old daughter who hunt.I bought one whip before Christmas and couldn't find another,so have hidden the first one away until I can give them both one.
 
That's lovely of you Alec.

I asked my Mother if I could have hers. Nope. She sold it, along with her custom made hunt coat with her hunt buttons still attached, when she was about 25 and had no money.

The woman is a pleb :eek:
 
Alec, I did try to reply twice to your PM but there's nothing showing up in my sent messages folder. Anyway just so you know I did try and reply to you.
