Lowcountry Hunt
Walterboro, South Carolina · Founded 2006
Set in the beautiful South Carolina Lowcountry, Lowcountry Hunt is a Masters of Foxhounds Association (MFHA) recognized hunt club founded in spring 2006, bringing the centuries-old tradition of foxhunting to historic plantations from Charleston to Savannah through the generosity of our landowners.
A Conservation Story
Horses, Hounds, and Hunt Country
In the heart of the Lowcountry, we share the centuries-old tradition of foxhunting across salt marshes, groves of ancient live oaks, and many of the state’s oldest plantations. We embrace the MFHA’s mission “to promote, preserve, and protect the sport of mounted hunting with hounds.” Hand in hand with hunting is conservation.
In the words of Theodore Roosevelt, as quoted by the Masters of Foxhounds Association of North America, “In a civilized and cultivated country, wild animals only continue to exist at all when preserved by sportsmen.”
“A prerequisite to mounted hunting with hounds is a love for the outdoors and nature. Masters and hunt staff gain a deep connection and understanding of their hunting countries. Field members choose to venture beyond the riding arena and immerse themselves in the enjoyment of the outdoors.”
Lowcountry Hunt stays true to conservation, tradition, love of the land, and the preservation of wildlife.
