RIP.JD 21 Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 I currently fly accipiters, but interested in getting a falcon, the lanner has caught my attention. However there seems very little about them being used for hunting. The research I have done suggests they catch birds in pursuit rather than a stoop. The pursuit falcon of choice seems to be the Aplomado, is there a reason why lanners aren’t used. Any help welcome.. Regards Quote Link to post

Regards Most people I no or herd of who fly lanners uses them for displays or lure birds , I no a lad who flys an aplomado female and while she’s a nice gutsy bird she’s more of a small bird falcon , if you going for gulls crows ,rooks etc I’d go for gyr x saker or Pere x saker ,or gyr pere saker ,,moorman off here flys one and it’s a killing machine , one his friends breeds them and for a very good price , Quote Link to post
