Lowcountry Hunt Fall Hunter Pace

The Day

A hunter pace is a timed ride over a marked course, ridden at an optimum pace set by the organizers. Riders do not race: the closest team to that optimum time wins. It is one of the friendliest ways to see the Hunt's country, and a good introduction for a horse or rider new to hunting.

Riders collect their registration packet at the registration table before riding.
