Eastern European Traditions
29/04/14 09:53 PM

What are your traditions of the hunt?

Respect and reverence is very highly valued. Before the shoot, a ceremony is held in which all guns gather to acknowledge the game that will be pursued over the course of the day. In front of a wooden bothy a roaring fire lights the Vryad, a rectangle of conifer sprigs where the day’s game will eventually be laid. Guns stand on the bothy side, backed by the loaders, beaters and pickers-up opposite. Three musicians with their hunting horns open proceedings with a gentle fanfare while the estate manager welcomes the group. The closing ceremony arranges the birds in an elaborate pattern while music is played and the group pays homage to the bag. This display indicates the reverence that the Eastern Europeans maintain for the birds and for centuries of tradition.
