Fox Hunting in Hollis NH


Today was a beautiful day with the members of Hunt dressed in their “pinks” chasing after the hounds. This area provides wide open fields where the work of the hounds can be viewed at a distance adding an extra dimension to the sport for hunters and spectators alike. Only one person was unseated and had to remount. This was much better than last week at a differnt hunt were a participant had to helicopterd off the field to a hospital because of a fractured pelvis. Orthopedic surgeons make a lot of money off this sport. After the hunt members enjoyed recounting their exploits at an excellent tea hosted by a local land owner.
