Fox Hunt in Concord




For readers of this blog, a picture of the dragon found in the Delaney woods is now available on my September 27th post.


Steve, Pam, Kathy and I met on Estabrook road in Concord to lay the drag for today’s hunt. We have cut back on the amount of drag used and the hounds seem to be able to follow this level without problem. If too much drag is laid it may diffuse over a wide area making the actual line of the drag more difficult for the hounds to follow. It was a chilly morning but before long we were shedding layers and the day ended clear and warm. It was a great day for foxing and riding. The hunt went well with no broken bones and no hounds lost.
