Pattern for a tail sheath male Gos

[John Soulsby]

Does anyone have a pattern for a tail sheath, I have looked at various commercial ones but don't like them

[Tim Laycock]

You have the right idea not buying one!
They are ****!

I will see If I can dig some sizes out but they are for a female

[John Soulsby]

Thank you

John

Dont know if this will be of any use to you, it is simply cut out of a plastic document wallet (think i got the design of blackbird somewhere ;-) )

The hole in the middle simply pops over the tail bell.

Sorry about the photo-lol-scanner is bust

John,

I'll make you a couple from the pattern Eddie gave me, I'm sure Eddie wouldnt mind me passing on the pattern once I got some made up too.

[Adam Barrett]

But i pressume they are similar dimensions?

[Wilfred]

I would also be interested a lot in the pattern! Preferably also this pattern or just some other good one for the size of female spar :-)

Jim.

[Midland hawker]

nothing wrong with the ones from falconry originals ive used them on my birds there excellent im sure some ones put the web address on here be for :rolleyes:

[OutFlying]

That design ruins the outer feather edges.

[Tim Laycock]

That design ruins the outer feather edges.

It certainly does!
We have witnessed this first hand.

jason

[OutFlying]

No problem Jason,
I have quite a few in production.

Jim.

[Midland hawker]

not used it enough to comment on this but if thats what out flying and bb say then will check and if thats the case will not use it ive only used it on young harris when manning them and i know these two guys have gos,s and would use tail gaurds alort more than me so thanks for advice out flying and bb as im hoping too get a gos one day and always find u two have great understanding and knowledge on them ( this aint arse licking be for anyone starts ) i justread all the posts on goss,s and these two always give the best advice :supz:

[OutFlying]

Midland hawker, with the falconery originals type tail sheath - one major problem other than feather damage, is that you have to remove the telemetry transmitter off the tail to fit it in the field.

Other designs fit over the transmitter with no need to remove it.

Jim.

[Midland hawker]

thanks out flying i see what u mean now when i get a gos i will get one like u make that goes over the bell and tail mount aswell ps this will not be my first gos before people start ive had a pr female german /finnish be for but used leg telemetry and attached the tail sheath on the plectrum and only used a bell on the tail didnt notice any damage like u and bb but on kills i never put it on i just used to hold her tail up so didnt use it that much and when finding it in my falconry box used it again on the young harris ,s but will take ur advice and not use it again i will allways bow down to superior knowledge so thanks jim ;-)
