stroller 341 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 i thought seriously about taking up falconry a few years ago but after looking into it i realised you needed to sell your soul to the art and forsake life as you know it. plus my wife wouldnt let me Quote Link to post

Red Collar 28 Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 I bet it is quite easy to get permission with a hawk in tow too. Shame the lurcher game has such a bad name. Ye hawks ye inman these days,most farmers don't mind the ferret and hawk,so long as ye take time to learn how to look after one they be ye free pass to get in with the farmer, once the farmer trusts you, you know yeself "seen a earth looking active there Giles" haha hawks r great in ther own right I'm sure most lurcher,terrier men would soon pick it up, I always look for earths,while out hawking without hawk I probably be goin round same earths over n over. Find yeself everywhere with the hawk,love to fly a gos an run a lurcher together after longear used terriers to flush pheasents an rabbit t hawks plenty times Quote Link to post
