How to tie a hunting stock
1. Place the tie round the neck and secure it the shirt by the front stud.
2. Take the right end and pass it over and under the left and tighten.
3. A loop is made next with the right end and the left end is passed through it.
4. Tighten to leave a smooth looking knot.
5. Cross both ends together and hold with second finger of right hand.
6. Secure at this point with tiepin. This must lie straight after having secured both ends into knot.
Don't over take the Field Master
Don't go on cut grass
If you are last through the gate - shut it.
Don't jump a hunt jump if it is next to an open gate.
Face towards the hounds when they come past you and your horse.
Say goodnight to the Huntsman when you leave
If there is danger warn the people behind you
HAVE FUN WHEN YOU'RE HUNTING!
