Most told Falconry lies

[Game & Pursuit Falcon UK]

What do you think is the most often told, biggest, or funniest falconry lie you know of?

[Tr1gger]

Thats a hard one but the most told one is that owls are smart:roll:

[Sean]

i reckon flying weights

[Addi]

my harris flies at 3lb 12oz ... shes one of them superior's ! pmsl

[MattSpar]

No, it's easy. In my case anyway. "I'm an expert don't y'know"!!!

[Barbary Boy]

im not flying her today because she had a bad do on her third hare yesterday!

[Game & Pursuit Falcon UK]

How about when equipment retailers say the highest quality (Only in some cases). Or my game hawks never flown at check before. Or to land owners "Of course it cant catch Pheasants". Or to the missus Im just going out with the hawk for an hour.

[FlameHairedFalconer]

Mines bigger than yours - although I think thats a universal lie...;)

[BFC 007]

my falcon waits on at 4000ft every day :toimonst:

[Barbary Boy]

definatly parent reared.

[FlameHairedFalconer]

He/she's never done that before.....

[BFC 007]

definatly parent reared.
put back with parents by 10days old

[Blaze]

My old bird was the best bird iv ever seen hunt!........

[Game & Pursuit Falcon UK]

Ive flown loads of them? Repeated by every idiot every time you mention a differentc species. Anyway Im off to fly my Haists eagle now see you all soon.

[FlameHairedFalconer]

It only started screaming when it saw another harris/its reflection/a dog/you

[Sean]

what i really dont get is how so much people on this forum dont have dogs or ferrets and still managed to catch rabbits? gotta be some fibs there

[FlameHairedFalconer]

Ive flown loads of them? Repeated by every idiot every time you mention a differentc species. Anyway Im off to fly my Haists eagle now see you all soon.

Flown loads of them m8, I'm off to fly my loadofcobblers Hawk now

[HunterPaul]

yes it is an eagle....~(cos i cant be bothered explaining)...

[Barbary Boy]

flew her free in 4 days.

[Game & Pursuit Falcon UK]

Falconers that do displays claiming never to have lost a bird. Despite having flown for a sqwillion years. Im sure theres one out there who claims toh have invented the sport!

[Kevin Massey]

[MattSpar]

my falcon waits on at 4000ft every day :toimonst:

Ah, but in my case of course, that's no lie.

[Game & Pursuit Falcon UK]

Funny that I had an AI male shoot in my ear this seaon. Does that mean I was ****** in the head?

[Jester]

[Ben C]

Squirrel hawking is good safe fun :supz:

[Kevin Massey]

[Kevin Massey]

[Ben C]

" Come on over I have loads of quarry"

[Ben C]

Nahh it's alright she's safe with ferrets

[MickeyDredd]

It'll be safe for her to follow-on with your gos on your fist :rolleyes:

[Sparrow Hawker]

Same scenario as in fishing, I bet the biggest lie in the book has got to be the people who lie about what there birds actually caught!

HH

[Barbary Boy]

i limit her to no more than a dozen head per day

[Blaze]

9 rabbits...3 hares.....Not a bad day!

[Barbary Boy]

you call that a good day? maybee 12 hares!

[Blaze]

Could only fly the 3 mate!........Iv killed em all..

[Kevin Massey]

It'll be safe for her to follow-on with your gos on your fist :rolleyes:

[BHawk]

why however did that pheasant get in my hawking bag

[Tim Laycock]

Of course I have a game licence! <g>


The Most recent falconry lie I have heard is.
"Just watch, Around this corner its pheasant heaven"

:shock: I wont say the name but he knows :lol:

[BHawk]

i forgot the "you should have seen it, my spar caught a massive cock pheasant", the only word that came into my head was bulls**t

[Ben C]

"Goshawks.......suicide bombers of the falconry world"

[Dude]

I newbie falconer told me after he got sum Xperience with an injured CB he buyed a pair of Harpy eagles and he fly them at the local park lol :D than I told him I have a good friend, his name is Andersen and he will interested to breed them and gives u good money. And the sucker go and looks after Andersen at an address what I told him pmsl :D

[DeathFromAbove]

what i really dont get is how so much people on this forum dont have dogs or ferrets and still managed to catch rabbits? gotta be some fibs there

I don't use dogs or ferrets yet mate and still manage to catch altho it's def not an easy game hedge bashing.... she's had 6 wabbits and 2 pheasant so far which isn't that much, altho she deserved every one of em..... but i'm hoping to be alot more succesful next seson when i get some ferrets.

[Graham Stuart]

i have both a barn and bengal eagle owl. im well into FALCONRY me like!
is that a dig at me barbie...thats with your owl predudice all the time:x
The biggest lie barbie told us in a previous thread was that he actually had a brain:wink:

Have a look in the dictionary thats if are able to read but there might be pictures in it so youll be all right, under:
FALCONRY

the skill of keeping birds of prey and training them to hunt.
(From The Concise Oxford English Dictionary)
so Owls dont count in your book

[Boobook]

'where can I buy a HH? I've done a falcory course and think I'm ready for my first bird' ;-)

[Graham Stuart]

have a look on the ibr site or buy the cage and avery paper loads in there for sale

hey m8, dont the rabbits just run down a set, id love to just fly about bashing the hedges, instead of carrying the ferrets and waiting about

[Game & Pursuit Falcon UK]

Erm excuse me but I want the best falconry lies! Though as you digress. Why does it take three falconers to fly one bird at the falconers fair? One to fly it. One to tell him he aint done it right. An the third to slag the other two off in beer tent! Oh the best lie is the numb nut who keeps flying that ****ing golden on a creance and saying he flys a golden eagle. It does have to come off eventualy. Two years is way too long! Sorry if this caurses offence but the ammount of people that think hes dragging it out too long is hillarious!

[Ben C]

some one has been down the pub..............:heart: :supz: :goodman:

[Game & Pursuit Falcon UK]

Who has ? Been out lamping actualy. Got a kill though.

[Ben C]

cool................details my man, details...........:D

[The Egyptian]

No im'e ready mate honest :supz: falconry'I can spell it

[Sprout]

Any pics of you and your Gyrkin or eagle K?

[Varmint]

What a funny thread??

Yes i would like to know more about your Eagle and Jerkin K? what do you fly them at and where in west yorkshire? what are you catching and in what style of flights? who bred them and what training stages have you taken them thru?

And the last but certainly not the least question? how do you find the time to get slips for both on a daily basis and still go out lamping?

What is a Jerkin and Goldie like on the lamp?

Back to your thread about the falconers fair, im doing the display next year, and i would love for you to bring your Jerkin or Goldie into the display and give us the benefit of your experience flying them in front of a crowd?

Any Chance K? PM me and let me know cheers.

[OutFlying]

Falconry fair display - good it needs a new face and a different approach. Hope it goes well.

[M & J Raptors]

some good questions there Varmint, hope we get some answers,

FF hey must be rubbing shoulders with the right people, or have they tried everyone else.

cheers

BC

[Sutty]

I lost count at 100

[Wilfred]

i do not like falconry i do not like birds of prey and i do not like hawk eagles

[Varmint]

I fly a gyr falcon and Golden Eagle at quarry every day! LOL

[SycoPaff]

my american kestral caught a hare on its 1st day out! it use some kung foo on its arse (it took only 1week to train it to do that!)
then carried it back to my house and cooked it for me and a rather nice stew!

[Wilfred]

my first falcon I once just flew when completely full just let him fly for some minutes then called him back to the fist. He came back immediately but did not even take a bit of the DOC i had in the glove. And the nicest part of it is that I knew that he was not hungry at all but I just wanted to go out with him and just trusted him to not fly away.

Oh no..that is not a lie..and I still miss that one once and a while.

[Kentish Falconry]

I fly a brace of white Gyr Females daily. When they don't come back I phone the Telemetry Manufacturers and complain so they have to come out and track them for me saves me the problem and if they can't find them I tell them they have to pay at my highly inflated prices

[Chris S]

ive never used baggies ,sorry but someone had to say it

[Barbary Boy]

ive never used baggies ,sorry but someone had to say it
their not acctually illegal you know? just how you use them. this isnt a lie by the way.

[Moritz]

My Jerkin hoods very well and never refused the hood in the 15 years I have flown it at red grouse.

Or

All of my 20 peregrine pairs produce each 5 youngens every year.

At Adrian:
It will be good to see a proper display at the fair.

Moritz

[Chris S]

like i said ive never used them

My Goshawk ALLWAYS Comes Back

(To the wife) Of course getting a bird won't take up all my time, only half hour a day!

(To the wife) Falconry is a cheap "hobby"

[Ned]

when the advert reads(superior harris`is for sale) after you`ve travelled the length of the country, to find the same old story,well they looked superior to me.

[Jens]

[Afshimo]

Got a few,

With the bird put HH, red tail or eagle for eg.

"O no, anyone can handle the bird, she's tame as anything"

"Birds dont need water, get enough from the chick yolk"

"The birds arnt fighting, they're playing tag"

"feather perfect"

"Falconry is easy - buy a bird and let it fly at a bunny - no problem!"

" I want a bird of prey, but i wont handle the bird, clean the poo's or cut the meat, poor little chickies"

"He/she was fine yesterday"

These arnt directed at anyone!!!! Just incase anyone wants to have a go at me for being incorrect lol.

[Afshimo]

"(with bird flying off in distance) whats a jesse?"

"Jesses dont need cleaning"

I got a good few more...

maybe later lol.

[Wingless]

Why does it take three falconers to fly one bird at the falconers fair? One to fly it. One to tell him he aint done it right. An the third to slag the other two off in beer tent!


As one of three at last years fair.. spot on lol

[Ned]

Years ago I had a new chamber raised eyeas, so did another falconer I know. For some reason he'd fallen into the pitch thing early in his career. He fell hard too. So he called me one day, "Hey, how high is your bird going?" I innocently told him about 100'. "Yea, mine's going 200 feet" A few days later he calls and asked the same question. My bird had done very well the day before so I told him "She hit about 200 feet" his answer was "Yea, mine's going 300 feet" This goes on and on until one day I figured I better try to 'one up' him the next time he called. Same question but this time I jacked the height from the truth into the ozone. He countered with a higher figure suggesting his falcon might have passed the Space Shuttle. Oh well it goes to show the first liar doesn't stand a chance.

Several years before, I knew two falconers with male gosses. Neither one of them would talk to the other though they didn't live far apart. One would call with a report on his bird's kills then I'd mention his nemisis's kills were one or two birds higher than his. A few days later the other called. I did my part and told him his enemy had so and so kills adding a few head for the fun of it. Well to make a long story short both at the end of the season said they ended it with numbers with first year birds at wild pheasants unheard of in these parts. One of them did bring his bird up here. His bird got beat so many times it would sit in a tree and watch bird after bird flush without twiddling a feather. One time his bird was chasing a pheasant. The only patch of cover wasnt' too far away. That pheasant intended to use it to the upmost and hit the cover with the gos right on his tail. The falconer shouted, "He almost got it!!" Well I didn't see any horse shoes or hand grenades laying around so I figure it didn't count.

So I'd say pitch and number of kills rank very high on my list of "Most Told Falconry Lies"

Plains grouse are good for lies too. A falconer calls here and tells me he and 2 of his buddies went grouse hawking. "Each of us took one" he drones on. So I congrat him and change the subject. A year or two later one of his partners and I were speaking. I somehow remembered their trip so did the natural thing and congratualed him on his grouse. "What grouse? All we caught was a duck with about a 1/2 ounce of steel shot in it." Gotta love falconers.

[Jastreb]

This one is from our last meeting November 2005!
I was leading one goshawk group and I told them that we were going in the line and dogs were searching the field in front of us. So, how the dogs came on points falconers went to their turn and sliped goses. There were 5 falconers including me. One of them, extremly "I know everything" falconer, full of "clever advices" always skiped his turn. Well, who cares, more slips for others.And while we were walking trough the field, he went in one small wood. For a few mins, lots of pheasants went from this wood towards us. Nobody had a slip cos we were all expecting to see his gos chasing one, but we didn't. He didn't join us till the end of the day. Again, who cares, more slips for us :D
For a few hours we went to our cars, and he were there. He told us that he had lots of slips on pheasants and partridges, but gos was unsucsessful. Nobody said nothing. Than he told that he must give a few more flights to his gos cos he didn't give him lots of food. I said it's ok we have our birds on our fists, so give him some flying. Than he took out high block perch, put gos on the creance and he started to call him to the fist. Gos took few flights, but after few minutes of waiting. While he was doing that, he was telling us again how good slips his gos had :lol: :lol:
"I believe him very much, and others too!" He is prepairing himself for flying gyr this year, cos gos is not so good as gyr is :D
Can't wait to see that!
Cheers Viktor

[MitchellBrad]

Falconers are the same world wide from what I can tell.

The funniest I heard was from a falconer here picking up an eyeas. We both agreed we hate to hear someone come up after flying a bird and say, "May I make a suggestion?" His canned answer is perfect. "No! I've seen your birds fly!"

[Black Hawk]

mi m8's m8 said his peregrine/gyr had caught 500 grouse in a season! (an it had a broken wing from september to bout may!):rolleyes: :lol: :rolleyes:

One I was told by an owner of a falconry centre.

My falcons regularly climbs/waits on at 2.5 to 3 miles high

[Dave G]

if i loose my bird it makes its way back to the motor pmsl

[SSL]

if i loose my bird it makes its way back to the motor pmsl

Is this supposed to be a lie?

I know of a Harris whose ace at it! :rolleyes: Including being half way up a mountain slipping on a rabbiting missing it and deciding thats enough and flying a couple of miles down hill to the owners van.

Moral of the story, dont feed up back at the motor...

Steve.

[MitchellBrad]

I've had 2 birds in my lifetime that would actually try to find their way back to my vehicle. One was a hybrid tiercel the other a peregrine. I don't know why they did it nor how they figured it out. In the case of the peregrine she was always fed on the ground in front of the Toyota I had at the time. Once she flew off out of sight and, as I was getting ready to go find her, I saw the falcon packing a small kill back towards the Toyota. She landed in her usual spot and began to eat it. Surprised the Hell out of me and to this day had I not seen it I wouldn't have believed it.

The best lie I actually believed for a while. A falconer says he caught a sharptail when we arrived. So, we believed him but did notice some road gravel imbedded in the carcass. Someone happened to mention that to a friend of his. The answer was, "Don't you know he's famous for picking up roadkill and telling everyone he caught it."

[Tim Laycock]

Moral of the story, dont feed up back at the motor...


Correct! :supz:

still can't fathom it out but HTH.... embarrased to say I had a crush on her when I was about 10 ( being a snotty public school boy~ lol going to a single sex school and having testoserone flowing through the system even at that tender age I was game for anything that was obviously of the fairer sex:rolleyes: ) however this very quickly disapeared during my early teens and has never returned, . IMHO Fine person, great showperson, done a lot of good for the sport( refuse to discuss the negatives because you will NOT get that out of me) but my interpretation of a falconer? all in all good for BOP keepers etc :partyman: no offence meant here JPJ if you see this!
