Larry,

Thank you for the reply.

Driven hunts in Spain were (and are, on private estates) very common in Spain, and frequently on a scale that dwarfed those in England. Remember that during the Reconquista grants of reclaimed land ran to the hundreds of thousands of hectares, that many of these estates still exist, and frequently have different parts of the estate hunted every year for different animals.

Spain is quite the destination for paid driven hunts, and the various companies who run these hunts have videos on YouTube.
