Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Ian M-H (X): "hunting on horseback" is a familiar term to me as someone who grew up in rural England. "Horseback hunting" sounds a little stilted. The context would be helpful, though - it *could* be the case that "riding to hounds" is better, for example.
