Ormond Beach, Florida newbie

[PhoenixFire]

Hello, my name is Brooke, and I'm very new to Falconry. I would like to start an apprenticeship in the near future. I would like to have all of my permits/licences and equipment for trapping season this year.

Good Luck! I loved Ormond Beach and stayed at my secretary's condo there.

Brooke, I recommend calling FWC to schedule your test and studying now, as you don't need a sponsor to take an exam.

Since sponsorship is a 2 year commitment people typically wont sponsor someone they don't know. Best way to get started is to get out in the field with falconers and get to know people.

You can look into the two clubs in Florida, the Florida Hawking Fraternity and the Florida Falconers Association. You can also check out florida gamehawkers on facebook. We frequently post about planned hunts and invite out apprentices and pre-apprentices to join us.
