Hawk Flying To My Ferret

Recommended Posts

I'd love to see it, a local guy years ago used to fly a hawk and I really enjoyed watching him, If you would like to come fly your hawk whilst I ferret rabbits out for you I'd appreciate it as would love to see it, you would have to tell me how much space they need etc but I'm sure there is something suitable here

Ive done this a few times myself with a female Harris, great to watch but always amazed me that the hawk doesn't go for the ferret if no rabbits bolt

dont suppose its any different breaking them to ferrets as it is a dog to sheep

I suppose so, I never saw the training I just helped out hunting a few times so it surprised me that if no rabbits bolted then the hawk would just wait patiently in a tree while we put the ferrets back down

some of the best sport to be had imo, bolting rabbitts with a ferret to a harris hawk, outstanding fun, and very effective as well. A hawk thats steady to ferrets will just plain ignore them, same as stock steady dogs, i used to love it.

      Pigeon shooting on a small farm between Darlington and Richmond, must be able to go mid week not just weekends, this could be a nice little pigeon shooting permission for the right person, I’ve had some good days here but just can’t get there as often as the owner would like

      Hi all,
       My Dad  and I have rented a land in Spain. 30 min from Gibraltar airport. We are looking for 5 hunters to share the expenses. Currently i live in Bristol so what i do is to take weekend flights almost every month so im happy that you to join me.
      The land has:
      3 ibex license sep-january
      8 red deers sep-feb
      12red  deer does  
      5 roe deers May- September
      Wildboar all the year
      The land also includes house and my father is happy to pick up you at the airport.
      The price is £2000 per season/hunter
      if you know someone who might be interested give me a ring.
      The idea is to share the expenses not to sell a hunt as we are not professional outfitters so we are just looking for fellow hunters who are interested in big game shooting to share the experience.
