Description
This book is destined to become the duck hawker’s ultimate handbook. Only 1,000 were printed and will likely sell-out in 2005. It draws upon more than three decades of the author’s falconry experience offering his insight and broad knowledge of raptors.
Roy writes in an entertaining, narrative style presenting personal anecdotes to proffer examples and illustrate meaning. Within the pages lie a wealth of practical information covering such topics as:
*Training Techniques
*Slip Selections
*Use Of Thermals
*Working With Hunting Dogs
*Weight Management
*Flight Orchestration
The book is supplemented with many stunning color photographs of raptors in action. The author is currently working as a professional bird trainer and spends time lecturing across the country promoting the sport and art of falconry.
