Hello Robert: I am 70 years old, and in the process of building a mesw in order to regain my Falconers license.
I started Falconry in 1966, and continued until 1998.
Now I wish to get back in and am in the process of building a mews, and rounding up my scattered, moldering gear, (and rear) in order to be ready for this years trapping season.
As was stated before (somewhat differently), if your still above ground,
You should be able to handle it O,K.

Good luck in the pursuit.
