Louisburg Hunt

_MG_1177
The day dawned clear & dry with a crisp feel in the air.  An excellent team of assistants were in attendance throughout the day to deal with every eventuality & there were quite a few.  As they say what happens away, stays away!
You had to be there… some secrets we are not privy to divulge.
Hunting in Louisburg was certainly an adventure & now I will let the pictures tell their own story.

What was amazing about this hunt, was the range of terrain covered, in many ways comparable to Duvillaun’s Hunt.

A feast of soup & sandwiches were to be had in McNamaras after the hunt, which went down mighty well - so much so, seconds were had by many!
