rabbit demon 301 Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Sam you need to get a mentor first and get out and do a bit of hunting with them first. I know you said there are is no one around you who can show you but their is so much more to falconry other than just flying the bird. Care and flying weights which you wont figure out yourself. Google and see if there are any clubs around you. Get books, watch videos. go to shows and game fairs and get as much info as possible. Im doing the same myself. I would love to get a harris some day but not till iv got the time and right tutering behind me to get the best out the hawk. Atb. 1 Quote Link to post
Accip74 7,112 Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 As above mate..........what are your expectations? What do you want to hunt on what type of land? You mentioned falcons, is flying a falcon actually what really want to do? Quote Link to post
