Hi Spencer,

Gyrfalcons are a fantastic goal to set for yourself as a falconer, but before you get to fly one you'll have to fly probably several other species of raptor. I recommend that you start your journey with the Modern Apprentice website, you can find it here: http://www.themodernapprentice.com/ Since you're young you should take advantage of the time you have available to fly as many species as possible that are suitable for the country and quarry where you live. Also, if you use the search feature on NAFEX you'll find many threads on gyrfalcons to read and learn from, good luck!!
