Guest Tab Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Are you a member of The British Falconer's Club? They might be able to help hook you up with a more experienced person. Good luck. Quote Link to post

Guest Tab Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Might be worth joining. They did / or do a kind of apprenticeship scheme. Quote Link to post
Guest andy pandy Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 hi thanks for yr advise but i have already contacted them and they said there isnt anybody around here Quote Link to post
Guest Tab Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Hmmm, but if you were a member..... :dunno: Also, you'd get to attend field meets. (Although, I'm not sure what the situation is with those since the bird flu scare). Just a thought anyway. Quote Link to post
Guest andy pandy Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 not sure on the bird flu thing myself but i think i will give them a try do you know if you can join more than one club as i recon i will have better luck if iam in more than one club i have been told that the whc meets in usk every month i sort of know were that is so i supose i could try getting myself down there aswell thanks for the help tab. right then this is me being cheaky now i dont supose you fancey a hanger on at some time lol only joking Quote Link to post
Guest Tab Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 right then this is me being cheaky now i dont supose you fancey a hanger on at some time lol only joking If I had a hawk you'd be welcome, but I haven't. I'm a hanger on myself - well, a would be one. Haven't been out hawking in years. Not sure about the rules on joining more than one club, but the BFC would be my choice. Quote Link to post
