Enjoyed it.
5 min into it the dude shuts off the telementry b4 flying his falcon, minor editing glitch.
Oh well, still nice for those who otherwise will never enter a field with raptor and dog!

A very interesting, knowledgeable and informative reply. Thanks for your amazing inputQuote:

That was cool enough to watch.
Last of The Mohicans soundtrack gets alot of use in falconry videos, as does Gladiator.
Makes one want to travel to some of these foreign countries like Slovenia and Utah and see how they fly their birds.
Thanks for posting !
sigh....I love this sport !
thanks for the video I like no commentary
Utah? That cracks me up! LOL.Quote:

Watching it and the goshawks I get the impression these guys could use the tad bit faster NA goshawk which it seems is a bit faster off the mark at least.
This brings me to my hunting travels in Austria, very similar land.
I'm thinking, for you guys inspired to do a falconry video that this rendition of the "Last of the Mohicans" would be a nice score. It is my favorite rendition. A little deviation from the thread, I know but...

Are you sure thats not from Braveheart?
Nevermind, this is what i was thinking........

If I'd spent those years flying birds, I'd be more than a nondescript general class.

I was referring to the music ( "The gael") not the get up or any reference to re-enacting or renaissance fairs and by the way what is your definition of pretty? If you think that girl is homely I think you might need glasses, check out her other videos on YouTube.Quote:

Thanks for the vids all great. Cheers Rob UK:D
Oh hell Tom, don't apologize ! :)
I am having a couple of real peachy weeks (sarcasm intended) and that just fell off the tailgate. It was something my father used to say when we saw a good looking gal. It was a humorous attempt at not setting Mom off. Just came out.
That whole block of videos/music was neat.
That was some good musek.... :D
I wish I had a body like hers.... But then Oldguy would be chasing me around!!!! :eek: toungeout :D
I still run the woods with flintlock, scalping knife, and breechcloth. Can't imagine how much more fun it would be to have a gos' working the woods with me!
