    Default Hello from East Texas

    Howdy! I am A. Hurley; a 13 year old lady apprentice falconer from East Texas. My father is Sader762, and this is our first year.

    I got into falconry because my sponsor brought his PFRT, Rodeo, to the fall festival in our church. I saw him and his bird and instantly knew I wanted to do the same. It took some convincing and research, but my parents gave me the go-ahead. My father decided to do falconry with me because he didn't want me doing this by myself.

    I currently am working with my sponsor's old redtail for my first year, since I have to be sixteen to become a general falconer in Texas, and it's been lots of fun so far. I hope to get to meet you in the forums, and wish you a Happy New Year!

    Welcome to a great sport.

    Count is as a blessing to know of and get to experience such a thing at your age

    The only regret I have in falconry is that I didn't get involved in it MUCH sooner! You are starting at an awesome age! ENJOY!!!

    Hi! Alyssa and I had a great time at the meet thins weekend. Alyssa and Rodeo ended up catching 4 pack rats and 1 cottontail rabbit. She had a great time, especially getting to meet other lady Falconers.
