Hi folks. The AZ Falconers Association is hosting the Desert Hawking Classic in Kingman, AZ Jan 22-25th. It's a good game year in Kingman, with cottontail, jacks, and quail available in decent numbers.
Hotel rooms are available at reasonable rates ($42). There will be a free Friday BBQ lunch. The banquet speaker will be Tom Smylie talking about Island falcons. As usual, a good raffle will be held at the banquet.
Meet registration is free, and the banquet costs should be in the $30-$40 range.
More info is available at http://www.azfalconersassoc.org. The AZ meet is always an excellent gamehawking meet, so we hope to see you there!

Hi Charlie,

Hey, Paul; long time no talk! How's things?

All the info about out-of-state licenses is available here:
http://www.azgfd.gov/eservices/licenses.shtml

Licenses are available at Walmart (and some other sporting good stores) and at AZ GFD offices.

PS: Any idea whatever happened to Dave Biddinger? Last time I saw him he was in ABQ, but still in the USAF so traveling a lot. Lost track of him after that...

Hi all. I've got the final update for the meet. Registration is FREE, banquet is only $30. I can guarantee this will be the best meet food around for the price. BBQ Tri-tip, chicken, beans, rice, all the fixin's, dessert and wine.

I'd post a flyer here, but I don't seem to be allowed to post attachments. All the info should be up on the AFA website by tomorrow, though. www.azfalconersassoc.org (http://www.azfalconersassoc.org).

I'll be at the CHC meet for the next 5 days, but any of the directors on the website can answer questions for you too.

Did I mention that gamehawking is GOOD in Kingman this year?

Come on down...
