Here's how a Fox Hunt works: 1. One or two riders set the scent or path for the hounds. 2. The hounds find the scent and take off running as a pack... followed by the riders that are responsible for the dogs. (Master of Hounds & Whippers In) 3. The "Field Master" (Red Jacket) leads the "Field" (All the rest of the riders) on the path that the hounds have set. The areas covered while galloping are pre-determined.. When we get to the end of our run the dogs enjoy a drink and the horses have time to catch their breath. Riders revel in the adrenaline rush of galloping across fields and the camaraderie of the Hunt.
