i went out hunting with my friend dave and his two gos hawks. one female and one tercel. we left his house at 6:15 am i brought my female first year harris with me. now mind you she was hatched in late july and i got her november 15th. we first went to a liitle ditch to fly the tercel at ducks. we got a slip but he just didnt close the deal. we then moved to a field so i could fly my harris. we flew for about an hour or so and got lots of slips and fur from one jack. we then headed to another pond to give the tercel another shot. once again he just couldnt close the deal.so he headed an hour away to some good jack fields. we pulled the female gos out and two slips later she caught a jack. i decided to fly the harris again and this time she got a cotton tail. i gave her part of the front leg and then went for a jack... after about 5 jack slips she nailed one right near the truck.. WOO HOO our first double.. now mind you at this point this makes 5 head of game total for the season. needless to say i let her crop up on the jack. we then took the tercel to one last pond and he took a drake mallard. by the time i got home it was 12 hours later.. what a great day hawking.. MERRY CHRISTMAS.. ;D
