Foxhunting with Beechgrove Hunt

Another great hunt with BGH !! Weather was beautiful and the footing was excellent. Hounds worked exceptionally well. Staff even Tally ho'd a coyote. We had alot of nice gallops, traveling up and down several hills, beautiful views and vistas.

My TB, Gentle Ben, who is now 20 years old, did a great job of keeping up. I give the old boy credit.
Remember we do have an OPEN public hunt coming up in March, everyone is invited and we will all have a great time.
