Welcome aboard the sport and lifestyle of falconry David, good luck on finding you a sponsor. Your should check with your local game division and see if there is also a falconry club in your state as well.

Here is your first lesson in Falconry, Patience. There are falconers from Alabama here.

Second lesson is that begging for a sponsor online rarely works. Meeting up with local falconers and going out hunting with them for a while is the far better way to go. Once you put in some time and effort people will be a lot more willing to sponsor you. Best of luck.

The thing about that is I dont know where any are. Im currently asking permission to come to one of FAA's outungs, but that is as close to falconry as I have been. Talking to someone on the phone.

Click on that little green Forum Rules above and pay attention to Number 1. LOL

But seriously, find out when the FAA is having their summer picnic or their first event and go to that and you will probably meet someone that will sponsor you. Don't be too pushy when asking folks to sponsor you, it really turns them off. Just talk to folks and eventually it will come up that you are ready to get into the sport and you need a sponsor. Patience is the biggest assest in falconry and that isn't just waiting for a sponsor, it applies to everything in falconry.

Good luck!
