Hello Zacch and welcome to NAFEX.(welc)

Please have a look around and familiarize yourself with how the forums work. One forum that most people find the most useful is the site information (http://www.nafex.net/forumdisplay.php?f=26). This is where you can learn to post photos (first thing almost everybody wants to know).


If you are a pre-apprentice, apprentice, looking for information of falconry, etc...you will find this section extremely helpful. Please take the time to look here (http://www.nafex.net/showthread.php?t=2007).

Again, welcome to NAFEX! Let one of the moderators know if you need anything.

Welcome Zacch! I'm new here as well. (welc)

Yea that is exactly what I plan on doing. I have a job that I get off work usually by 3:30 and am home by 4. I live in a really quite neighborhood with 4 kids that are really into hunting, fishing and just being outside. They are really excited about hunting with a hawk. I am really excited about taking them with me. I am currently talking with three guys that own huge farms just down the road from my house. Been reading and trying to get a california study guide off ebay but have not won one yet.

I just love it when falconry becomes a family activity. What a great way to spend time with your kids. Have fun.
