I'm looking for some advice from hunting pros as I really want to take my boy out a few times this coming season but I haven't been hunting since I was a small child (when I got asked to leave on my naughty pony!) and I feel a bit out of my depth!
What is the best way to ease myself (and my horse) in? He is young and has never hunted before but has hacked in company, done xc rides etc and is perfectly mannerly and happy around dogs so I am not overly concerned about him but I don't want to do anything incorrect. I wondered about taking him cubbing but wasn't sure if you have to be a subscriber to do this.
I can probably get a couple of more experienced hunting folk to come with me but i would like to know in advance so I am as prepared as I can be.
Can anyone recommend any hunts that would welcome a newby in the hants / berks area (I know berks&buck draghounds & southern shires hunt near me but have no idea on what they are like as a pack)?
Thanks
