Found this little 30 minute gem on the internet. A Irish TV programme about hunting, focused on the Scarteen, looking at both sides of the good thing / bad thing debate.
Won’t play; says it has copyright violations therefore can’t play in USA.
The series is called ‘Hector goes…’ and the one I was looked at was ‘hunting’. Maybe look around and see if it is available elsewhere.
Worked for me no problem.
Yeah I hunted once with Scarteen years ago. Love them hounds. The ditch and bank country gets your attention real quick. If you’re on a horse that knows it’s business, just grab mane and survive. Leap, wiggle through the hedge, gather yourself and leap again…wash, rinse, repeat. Did a lot of ditch and bank jumping with Golden Vale as well…
At around 8:50 the hounds walk through a purple-hued foot bath. Can someone explain what it is? I’m guessing some kind of disinfectant?
