General

Below are the recommendations for dress when hunting with the SC and RMAS Drag Hunt. The tradition of hunting dress was to show an affiliation and respect for a particular pack and each pack has its own particular dress code.

These days, although smart turnout is important, safety is paramount and therefore as long as your kit is correctly fitting, clean and tidy, you are welcome to hunt with us. However, if you hunt regularly it is hoped that you will be able to obtain the appropriate apparel.
