[OutFlying]

don't make me angry look

[GoneHawking]

Superb, "I've got the arshole look" Who bred that bird Outflying??

[OutFlying]

Mick Kane

[GoneHawking]

Thought so, Light colour, stunning looking bird, a decent weight to I bet..

[OutFlying]

This is my favourite, posted before, but who cares..............

[Ben C]

They have such fantastic plumage and fearsome eyes.....love it! Got any of her catching them in flight Outflying???

[GoneHawking]

Jim

Was that the bird that featured in the BFC newsletter?, awesome pic.

[Moritz]

Nice pic, you should get someone to draw it!

[OutFlying]

Jim

Was that the bird that featured in the BFC newsletter?, awesome pic.

Yes

[GoneHawking]

Good article, are you still flying the bird? in the article you said that flying an Imprint was not for you and you probably wouldn't do it again, I found that flying my Imprint started to get a bit of a chore rather than pleasure, in the end his noise got a bit to much and I sold him after 3 seasons, probably my fault, being my first imprint gos, and at that time I didn't have so much feathered game to keep him killing on a regular basis, I am now after a finnish male P/R Gos for this year.

[Ben C]

That shot against the fence looks cool, how did that happen? The one in the deep pine forest makes it look like that Gos can surley move between very tight spaces. I love to hear about those kills OF, they must have been spectacular. :) :) :)

[OutFlying]

No I sold him back to Mick in January. He was my first attempt at an imprint and by Christmas felt burnt out flying him. Not having done one before or having someone local to provide first hand information it was more time consuming than ever before, it got to a stage where I felt I had to fly him rather than wanting to fly him (If you know what I mean). I made a couple of mistakes whilst flying him but have now learned from the experience.

When I wrote the article I was still "recovering" from the season and stated I wouldn't do one again but now time has passed and you can look back at what he achieved and in what style you begin to make plans to do another but doing it slightly different this time. It won't be this season though, I don't have the time or the wife's patience to try one again so soon. Probably try again next season just feeling a bit "gossed out" at the moment and need a season off to recharge.

[Ben C]

Oi you skipped me ya ******, give us a taste of the article you wrote about 'Gossing out'. How did that hawk end up so thick inthat pine mate. It must have really been on the afterburners eh! That Pheasant must have been hit hard in the air and taken down onto the fence pretty quickly. Superb flight I bet! I'd love to fly a Goshawk. A bit more experience yet though.

[OutFlying]

BenC,
The hen pheasant was the better of the two - I'd walked up a hill and my pointer was working the left hand side of a field, whilst a friend was covering the r/h side with a springer. This field was bare of cover (sheep grazing) except for a very small patch of nettles on the r/h side. It was my slip, the spaniel bumped the pheasant up and the gos left the fist in an instant flying slightly downhill towards it. The pheasant was attempting to make it to the conifer plantation, which was approx 300 yards away. The gos closed the gap down and attempted to bind from underneath but missed, righted itself and attempted to bind again but failed. The 2 of them entered the conifer plantation at nearly the same time, gos about 10 foot behind. Out comes the telemetry and picked him up in the middle of it, no standing room - had to crawl in on hands and knees.

The cock flight was a direct flight with the pheasant rising on the opposite side of the river, both gos and pheasant disappeared over the hill. Telemetry track later found him in this position - you guess is a good as mine.

OF.

[GoneHawking]

Fair play Jim, I had started to feel just the same about my Gos, the flying was superb and his character was great, but like you it was my first imprint and I obviously made mistakes, I would probably do another one when I retire or can dedicate the first 6 months to being with the bird constantly.

[Ben C]

Ha....excellent my man. It is only a slight degree of seperation, but that ability just to get the game higher is what does it. Other than that it more or less a blue print of a harris....killing in cover and all that....:) :) :)

[OutFlying]

BenC,
It was nothing like a harris flight :shock:, the distance of the slip was probably 25-30 yard start. He flew many down on the flat, even taking wood pigeon in flight from the fist - not a tree.

In the last 3 seasons probably taken close to 200 pheasants not one has been taken from a tree.

Once you've seen a good gos ( a normal and the only one to own) flying a gamebird down using pure speed then a similar type flight with even the best harris in the land - however fit - does not compare. :wink:

OF.

[Dave Whitt]

This is mine on his first English Partridge, it is also the only image I have of him on a kil all the rest were lost on the computer (moden technolodgy)l

[Ben C]

Hehehehheheheheheheh......just giving you a nip mate!! Nah of course I would never think that killing in cover would in ANY way be like a Harris. MY god, far too much nobility in the old Gos eh!

3 season = 200 pheasants good going. Now how many were taken in mid air, as opossed to cover?

Now OF I am just having a bit of fun mate, so feel free to shoot me down mate. :) :) :)

ben

Ben,
It all depends on how you want to mid air them, I fly over a pointer (all flights from the fist) and choose to walk back from the point to allow a fair distance for the slip - to improve (in my eyes) the quality, intensity and length of the flight. If I stood closer there would be nearly all mid airs but they would be muggings.
Most flights (hilly terrain) go out of sight and need telemetry to track them down, so to determine how many where taken in mid air is difficult to judge but when you enter a massive field with no cover and your gos is plucking away - did it mid air it or did the pheasant just give up and land (the choice is yours).

Last season his mid airs takes consisted of 5 wood pigeons, 1 lark, 1 pipit, approx 10 grey partridge, 4 magpies, 2 crows, 6 or 7 pheasants. These are confirmed sightings and as I said many end results are not seen. Probably quite a few more but if I don't see it I can't count it. I wouldn't count a flight from a reflush as a mid air take.

[OutFlying]

looks like this one also - his first partridge.

[Ben C]

AHHHHH, we've been shot,,,,,,,coming in bravo two one zero....ahhh...looks like a stern hit........bail out, bail out.

Seriously though, tell me more about the lark, pipit, magpie, crow and partridge. Were these set up by your pointer or were they caught in a 'fair' flight. What do you consider a fair mid-flight flight. Are you seeing a pigeon in flight and then slipping, or are you considering the pigeon, the wind, the height and all the other stuff. I ask these questions SERIOUSLY, not as a comparison between harris and gos etc etc etc but as someone who is interested.


Thanks

Ben

[Dave Whitt]

Outflying, Nice looking bird what`s his weight ? imprint or P/R ?

Ben, Example of good mid air flight, Two crows about 30 yards into a very large field, gos takes them on out of car window, pull car over and get out to see gos climbing behind the two crows now about 100 ft the gos is rapidly gaining then a 20 - 30 second dog fight with both crows to catch one diving for cover at about 40`

You ever seen gosses fly ben ?

[OutFlying]

[quote="JackoBean"]Outflying, Nice looking bird what`s his weight ? imprint or P/R ?

He was an imprint, best weight around 2-1 but got a bit carried away and flew him as high as 2-3. Killled at this weight but problems developed from it.

lark, pipit , crow, pigeons not pointed. Ben if you want a descripition of every flight your hard drive will need reformatting :oops:

[M & J Raptors]

and this bird is certainly going to be special, that's why i has him back, hes going to be flown by a good friend of mine, probably not has hard has OF, but his wing beat on Game is really something else,
looking forward to seeing him fly this coming season, and will report on his progress,

Billy

[Ben C]

Good good, I shall look forward to the book mate :) :).

[Ben C]

Jackobean....not yet......but will be seriously looking for a cahnce to witness it without any club nonsense.....any offers my old mate???????

No worries Ben

I like the last one :)

[OutFlying]

fast one

[OutFlying]

Lee on that last picture what is that yellow and green ring thing?

looks like earth sleeving (electrical) over a tie wrap holding a bell on

[Hawkmaster]

Wow how do you get those? Are you able because of the point to get setup first and then anticipate most things?

[OutFlying]

magpie, car hawking

[OutFlying]

crow, taken not from a car but walking in a field

[OutFlying]

Wow how do you get those? Are you able because of the point to get setup first and then anticipate most things?

After a bit you get any pictures you want, if your dog is steady enough. The pheasant shot was taken by a friend and when early on in the gosses career, that's why the slip was so close.

[Hawkmaster]

crow, taken not from a car but walking in a field
My Gos will not even look at crows or gulls, which is a big pity as we have tons here, boy if I was in the USA I could encourage her with baggies?

[OutFlying]

Have you tried feeding her on some freshly killed ones ? I feed them to all my gosses, first using skinned ones, then leaving a few more feathers on them and then building up to feeding on full feathered ones. But they have to be still warm none of my hawks seem to like cold crow meat though.

[OutFlying]

first crow

[OutFlying]

no death scenes this time, just two youngsters.

In the background behind my son is the imprint tube - if you look close enough.

[Ben C]

****ing sqawksome........See now I am getting enthused by the looks of this age old accipter.......the one on rabbit and chasing the pheasant are superb mate. Not sure about the maggie, looks a bit too 'land fill' for my liking, but each to their own.

A lovely lovely hawk.

[Ben C]

One more thing??? How do you avoid frounce, or is this just reserved for 'manky' ****ers in towns.

[OutFlying]

BenC,
The flight started at the side of a road on a nice grass verge, it was mid aired and ended up in the ditch. People can't stop littering :shock:

[Ben C]

Ahh they are ******s aren't they mate.....good to be put right.

[OutFlying]

One more thing??? How do you avoid frounce, or is this just reserved for 'manky' ****ers in towns.

Just let it pluck at the woodpigeon, transfer to lure for the feed up. remove head, crop and guts off the pigeon and let him feed off it again.

[Ben C]

:) cheers

[OutFlying]

I did catch a woodie that seemed to some sort of "wart" type appearance on its body, didn't feed any of this one. Anything that doesn't look healthy
doesn't get fed to the hawk.

[Ben C]

I set up a bird table the other week, and I am looking through me lead lined windows at a huge gathering of 'woodie' and 'jackdaws'. Cody is no more than 20 feet away...............just a thought. :) :) :) Reckon that fine specimen you had would give them a run for their money.:) :)

[Tim Laycock]

OutFlying
That head shot of him in second year feather is top hole :D
Its now my desktop background! I hope you dont mind :mrgreen:

[OutFlying]

different gos that, he was bred by Chris Brown of Bristol - killed hitting a fence.

[Tim Laycock]

BASTA*D!! :( Sounds like he went out doing what he no doubt did best though! :|

[OutFlying]

BB, if your willing to kill game and fly enough - its a certain thing that at sometime your gos will kill itself somehow.

[Ben C]

you can't be serious OF. That makes it sound a rather desolate place to be.

[OutFlying]

yes I am serious.

[Ben C]

Jesus, is that a return ticket price worth paying?

[OutFlying]

If you fly any kind of hawk/falcon there is a high chance of some sort of accident. But gosses are more prone due to the type of flights involved - low level pursuits in cover at speed.

[Ben C]

But it being ineviatable is a bit heavy. Christ they cost what? £1500, and every trip out after manning you hold your breath waiting for it to shuffle of this mortal coil?

Don't get me wrong I love em but not at that cost!

[Tim Laycock]

BB, if your willing to kill game and fly enough - its a certain thing that at sometime your gos will kill itself somehow.
I quite agree OutFlying.
Its a trade off isnt it, Sport Vs Risk.
You cant have a consistently high level of the former without some element of the latter creeping in.

will kill itself somehow
Have seen it happen first hand twice, It was pretty ****** :(

[OutFlying]

BenC,
Maybe certain is too strong more like a very high chance. Probably in a season I'll slip him 250-300 times or maybe more than times that by how many seasons he lives and then the chances of an accident start to become high.
OF.

[Tim Laycock]

Don't get me wrong I love em but not at that cost!
Wait until one has exploded from your fist to give chase to a cock pheasant Benc.
Its worth every penny.
Half the fun of flying an accipiter is that every other day has the capacity to become a "brown trouser affair" without any warning at all 8)

[Ben C]

I've also seen it, but not with the devastation unfortunately described above. Twice Cody has 'bumped' into fences. And we had to go home on both occassions, touch and go for 24hours, but I am not sure I am resigned to the fact. F**K I would be absolutely devastated.

A funny story in retrospect: Lucy and I were on our first 'hawk' experience and our mentor let a beautiful buzzard called 'Buzzby' take flight. He landed on a elecrical pole and went POP! We had been there about 3 minutes!! A lesson we learn't (he recovered by the way and is still going strong)

BB,
If you want the best flights then you have to take the good with the bad. I lost 2 gosses in 4 seasons, the wife was going mad about the costs.

As they say "no such thing as a free lunch" :oops:

When the gos hit the fence and died, I had to think long and hard before deciding to fly one again but you look at the sport you've had and do it all again.

[Ben C]

I'll tell you what it is.......You never, and I mean NEVER here of these costs when starting out. On the page of whatever book you read there is never a fully realised description of what is being said here. And your hawk walks never even cover such stuff (bad for business I suppose)

I fully understand what you mean, and I have had me own 'brown trouser' moments....I have a f**cking nature reserve across the road for christsake.

But the brutal facts that OF is quite rightly describing are a modest revelation. And hard ones at that.

[Wightwings]

more pics PLEASE.....just found this thread, not read a single post but had a great time with the pictures........wicked

[Tim Laycock]

Yes good pictures.
I cant make my mind up about northern Goshawks from "across the pond".
They intrigue me because they are different I suppose, but I think the northern euro Gos is the prettier of the two.

Same animal underneath though arent they?

[M & J Raptors]

only the best ones get killed,

[Tim Laycock]

Yes,
Probably has a lot to do with the level of determination which the hawk pursues its chosen quarry with.

[M & J Raptors]

spot on BB

[OutFlying]

If sh*t can happen - it will. I know one of your gosses on loan got kicked in the eye with a cock pheasant spur - blinded in one eye in a instant.

If you can't bare to lose your hawk - then don't fly it, is my advice. It not a case of if it will happen more a case of when it will happen. Providing of course they leave the mews often enough.

Do you use a digital camera OF, and what sort is it? Sorry if you've been asked before :oops:

[Wightwings]

i love that photo of the gos on pheasant inside the fence coil.....dont know why but its one of my favourites.......thanks

[OutFlying]

I was thinking of using it for a Christmas card :lol: Good flight that, wrote the flight description up on another group, will try and find it.

WW - have a look at message 1802 on UkGoshawkers archives.

[Wightwings]

please do i love it.

[ColdZero]

...

[OutFlying]

WW,
I just found the last entry in his hunting journal (novenber 2003) after he hit the fence-

I've just finished writing up his journal, in his season and a half he took 165
head comprising of 129 pheasants, 7 partridge, 7 mallard, 2 teal, 3 rooks and 17
various including rabbits, squirrel, moorhen etc. The enjoyment and sport I had
with this bird will take some beating, now putting it behind me and looking
forward to flying another finnish male next season and hopefully to the same
standard.

Yours Jim.

[GoneHawking]

Jim, Will you go back to Parent reared gosses or will you give the imprint route another go?

[OutFlying]

It all depends on time available, if time is not an issue I will imprint again - if time is short I'll fly a parent reared gos.
Jim.

[GoneHawking]

Exactly my predicament, So I have elected to fly a P/R bird, still the dogs nuts however it's raised.

[Ben C]

Primeval looking beast mate...g29 is a ****in masterpiece......get it blown up to 5ft x 6ft and stick it on your wall. Honestly mate, makes me respect them even more.

[OutFlying]

Ben,
I know my wife doesn't mind the hawking (much), imprinting in the front room etc but I think the line would be drawn at goshawk wallpaper even Jastreb wouldn't get away with that - would he ?
OF.

[GoneHawking]

Ben, G29 has a certain prehistoric jurassic look about it, just awesome.

[Ben C]

Its funny, because when you read all sorts of silly threads blah blah blah, and then you see the pictures YOU KNOW that creature is so PERFECT for the job.

Its like a good car, or a well designed gun.....MAGNIFIED a million times.....after all the ********, all the banter and all the theory.....ITS JUST THERE..... full respect. :) :)

[OutFlying]

This season pictures should be better, I've borrowed a camcorder and a few of my mates now have the big boy cameras.

[Wightwings]

nnnaaaaaa G11 guys is the dogs bitz and thanks to Jim is now my comp wall paper. is just epitomises the nature of the beast so to speak and i have to say is one of the best "bird on kill" pics i have seen for a long while. mind you i love em all and the more i see the more i cannot wait for the new bird

[Ben C]

OF I look forward to it mate :) :)

I have managed a small loan from the bank for a new camera (Cannon EOS Digital) we should have a FRIENDLY comp for the best pic of the year my man?

In fact that would be good as a whole forum thing.........but perhaps a bit too much for the mods eh? Sponsers from major companies, I bet I could organise it?? :) :)

[OutFlying]

BenC,
Tell the wife their child friendly when you want to upgrade :wink:

[Ben C]

Thanks you blasted ****** and ***** you......:)

and I quote..

"aaaaarghhhh looook at it, its looking up at outflyings kid, thats how to sell it to the ladies. Do you think Cody could be friend with it?"

NO UPGRADE.........................EVER!!!!

I shall admire and respect your charges from afar gentlemen, but I shall be forever happy with my own.


(NEVER POST A PICTURE LIKE THAT AGAIN OF YOU STIRRING BARSTOOL). :) :)

Jim, I think I need some photography lessons from you mate. Most of the pictures you put up truly do justice to the majesty of goshawks. Love the colour contrasts in this one.

Johny

[OutFlying]

I didn't take them Jonny, a friend who I fly with takes them. Glad you like them.

The female was flown by him for 3 seasons, sold as a breeding hawk - in a avairy for 7 years rearing 3 clutches and now back out again like it was yesterday.

Jim.

[It's Alright Ma]

He's certainly got a good eye Jim, excellent pictures. Great to hear the story behind that female too, very impressive.

[OutFlying]

Cheers Johny,
She's back in again come January.

Jim.

Nick he’s got goshawk in him and he’s on a nice kill cant see anyone having any objections? :yawinkle: Alf.

[ArnoudH]

Yesterday we went out with 7 gosses (5 brown birds) in Holland on the Royal The Hague Golf and Country Club to help them with the rabbit problem :D

Beautifull day, very difficult to fly and also ferreting was hard.

Made 2 pics of the gos of my friend Adriaan.
His German female, swapped beginning this year from previous owner Rickgos, weighted 940 grams and turned out to be a silent, very aggressive hunter.
Yesterday she even went on a fox, no doubt she hestitated and she hit it hard and nailed it!
Fortunately she had to loose beacuse of bushes, but the bird is a mad hunter, for sure.

Good day for me at work today, Gos has been a bit choosy with his corvids, but not with this one.

Hi,

some pics of my small german tiercel. He flys at 630 gramms and is a real devil on rabbits.
I loved him in his juv. plumage but like him even more in his adult feathers.

All the Best,

Claas

Cheers Johny, flying him at work so most of the time there is a flight. The times when he has been up for gulls they have made it over water, but not this one. Also there wasn't a breath of wind, good for slips at gulls with a Gos.

Ross,

Tasha has a 1Dm2 and I have a 40D, I rarely get to touch the 1D:roll:

Tasha uses a 100-400L and I have a 70-200L all Canon.

We also have a 20d as a backup. Tasha wants to get a 400 f5.6 prime next...when we can afford it...

I have not been called a lad for a long time....most of the time it is old fart of just a-hole.....So thanks....LOL
