Coakham Bloodhounds News
Booking-In Instructions 2021
Subscribers and Ticket Holders will be guaranteed a space, unless Covid changes things, but they must still book in via coakhambooking@gmail.com for each meet.
We will have limited Caps available. See meet description for release date - these will be on a first come, first served basis, and require payment and a completed disclaimer (see Subs page) within 24 hours of booking . Caps are not refundable.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
We do not accept bookings by any other means except email to coakhambooking@gmail.com so an email to any other officer or a comment on a post on Facebook will not be taken as a booking.
Please ensure payment, booking and disclaimer are all done in the same name, to avoid confusing the organisers! If this is not possible for some reason then ensure the organisers are aware of this.
IMPORTANT: NO DOGS ALLOWED AT MEETS AT THE MOMENT, THERE IS A LOT OF KENNEL COUGH AROUND AND WE WOULD HATE FOR THE HOUNDS TO CATCH IT AS WE WOULD ALL MISS OUT ON HUNTING!
Commencing: 9am sharp, so please be mounted by then
Parking: take the drive signposted Coppings and enter the first stubble field on the right.
Dress: Ratcatcher
Bookings: ONLY by email to coakhambooking@gmail.com.

The Coakham Bloodhounds are one of the oldest Bloodhound packs in the UK, and they hunt over a wide area in Kent and Sussex. They hunt "the cleanboot" (ie the unadulterated human scent left by a man or woman running ahead of the pack). Hunting with a pack of bloodhounds is one of the least artificial method of hunting organised quarry, and, whereas a fox will run freely, a human quarry can make more effective use of the increasingly urbanised countryside. The hounds hunt by scent alone, unlike many other breeds of hounds that hunt by sight.
