Wonderful to watch hunting in an age old fashion, as before the shotgun was thought of. Lovely to watch the dogs working the woods, and what an impressive bird the goshawk is. 👍
Longtime interest in falconry and hawking!! Once was able to hunt several times with a Gyr falcon trainer taking pheasant and crow! She was almost pure white with dark spots, very strong and would wait on or fly from the fist! Beautiful to watch!
If someone randomly asked me "What do you think Irishmen hunting pheasant with hawks would look like?" This would be it, the outfits, types of dogs, the forest, everything about this is perfect
As a angler of 50 years that looks brillant fun to me. I love the way sparrow hawks and goshawks can fly at speed through cover in pursuit .lovely vidio .just got my first really good look at a red kite yesterday about 6 miles south of Banbridge on A1 .beautiful bird bit more graceful looking than buzzard
There is a beautiful cooperation between 3 animals to get a meal. I want to get into falconry more than hawks just cause I love the tenacity and efficiently of the smaller prey birds. But amazing video nonetheless! That was awesome.
Looks like a very fun day of hunting! Always love watching dogs work a field and hedgerow. Dogs doing what they were born to do and Goshawks doing what they were born to do. Cool video.
Irish descendant in northern ontario Canada here. I hunt with a 20 gauge shot gun, on long walks, solo, deep in the woods, we have wolves running around, I have a wolf tag, so I carry heavier ammo for that in case. We have the very odd ring necked pheasant like I'm seeing there but mostly sharp tailed grouse, rabbit, wild cats, moose, in the north, all you'd expect. I love Ireland, the history, family came from Lough Gill, Sligo ( last name is Cuirnín). I figured I'd see you guys with rifles at the start of the vid but this was quite something. We can get flacon licenses in Canada, you got me thinking, save coin on ammo, I had no idea of their abilities. You men really dress it up, I have good gear and thermo as it's cold up here -35 celcius at worst off Lake Superior, I couldnt get away with my cap from Ireland maybe early fall. Anyhow hope to make it over.
@@seadrifter8975 It's really does, I spent the day off Ranger Lake Rd. Which is north of Sault Ste. Marie Ontario if you want to look on Google maps. There are a ton, ton of lakes. Most of them are loaded with trout. It's a drive but worth it. You Irish would love. There are descendants that loged out the roads into the backcountry.
I know goshawks are built for it, but man that gos can move!! Great Video, hat's off for the true falconers not ones who fly birds in shows, but who actually hunt the bird
First time seeing this and wow wow wow.. hoe very impressive and how quickly the hawk picks up the bird for the kill. Real amazing seeing animals and humans work in harmony... Beautiful hawks being able to do what they are good at... Great job gentleman
Wicked cool! I'm not familiar with goshawks they seem like a praregrine falcon similar stature speed appearance and lb for lb even tougher then big hawks and eagles very very cool I'm jealous and now I want a goshawk and I love how they so small but no problem dispatching huge pheasants etc. So cool!
The must have amazing hit ratio. Wonder how these birds (Hawks) spend their time in wild (after catching their prey)? Don't think the pheasant's can escape the hawks (too slow in flight). Thanks for sharing.
Very kewl , but to much time retrieving the bird for me . I live in the midwest and have always wanted to try this with a falcon or osprey 👌...kewl video for sure 👍👍👍👍
Ya know mideval peasants used falconry to hunt for survival, and it’s not actually that expensive (you don’t have to constantly buy ammo for a Hawk 😉). It just takes more time and commitment.
This is the type of conservation I like to see. Guns are useful tools when it comes to hunting and conservation, but they're also dangerous. It makes me happy that there are skilled professionals that can use animals like hawks and falcons as nature intended - hunters!
Appreciate it’s a long time since video uploaded but I came across it and wondered why the hawks spread their wings when feeding after the kill. There must be a good reason but I know nothing about hunting with birds.
It's called mantling. It's just a thing they do to prevent other hawks from stealing it. They'll also sometimes puff themselves up to look bigger and flare their crests.
Lol jus had this recommended and seen Ur comment and this made me laugh ...because I was that lad once ...not a pot to piss in and all the time in the world!!! Now I could afford one but seriously don't have the time for one because I'm too busy working 🤔 What a shit predicament !!!!! Such is life and I hope one day I could be privileged enough to enjoy some kick arse hunting time with a hawk cos u never own them they can be free as soon as you fly them ...do it wrong and there gone ☝️
@@mickgott7327 Work hard play hard, we had nothing growing up the countryside was free that's where we spent all our spare time with catapults, airgun when we could eventually afford an old one. Nothing fancy a few of the lads off our estate made it big multi millionaire's the same raggedy arse'd kids we grew up with still best freinds in our sixties, weve shot all over the UK on some fantastic shoots many walked up days with gun and dogs in Norfolk when I we were younger which I absolutely loved. Don't be a slave to your job Mick an old boy said to me when I was younger,,, you wont be lying in that bed when you're about to croak wishing you had worked harder,,, here's me giving you that's advice 😎🤙🏴

I thought you killed all raptors to protect your frankenpheasants & frankenpartridges !? ,,,,,,,,, gents !? Also why is the land exclusively for your lot & everyone else GET ORF MY LAND !?
Excuse me can I ask? What tracking device are you using? What is the name of its type of tracking device? Sorry my English is bad, because I am from Indonesia Thank you :)

I love how you can tell the dogs are having the times of their lives just givin er in the bush
Such gorgeous, gorgeous landscape, like what you would find in a story book.

Sounds like you got the countryside for it there too. Good luck, hope it works out.
@@williamoneill5498 yep we have at it for generations.

Nice to see that Hawking is alive and well in Ireland. The birds look great and lots of game taken in fine style.
It even PLUCKS the feathers for you.

excellent camerawork and good to see Goshawk on top form..
These RUclips algorithms are fucked. 7 years later, in 2020, this video this finds its way into my recommendations.
These folks are real pros - I enjoy watching and appreciate their care and dedication to the goshawks!
Lol. 🛋🥔compliments
Stunning birds of prey just fantastic to watch, the hours of training must be phenomenal!
That type of hunting it's like art 🎨
Beautiful! I've been reading "H is for Hawk" by Helen MacDonald, and this video gives me great insight into how goshawks hunt.
+Jacob Thomas Same here. Half way through it. Pretty amazing.
Same here.

Same here!! 1/3 of the way through it.
Currently doing the courses in the UK. Once passed exams will be looking to have my own female Finnish Goshawk
3:50 birds like "let me go bro, I got this."
Y’all living the good life. Greetings from New Orleans 🎭
Wow, its amazing how well they are trained and eager to work.
the falcons are pretty cool too
@@swamprat69 What falcon?
This is so amazing! I want to be there doing this. Beautiful countryside, dogs, hunting...love it!
Yep falconry is one of the most unique sports in the world
It looks like a lot of fun! The bird gets his fill too
First time seeing this and wow wow wow.. hoe very impressive and how quickly the hawk picks up the bird for the kill.
Real amazing seeing animals and humans work in harmony...
Beautiful hawks being able to do what they are good at...
Great job gentleman
This is an excellent sport. It's great to see hawks, humans and dogs working together. Everyone gets a meal.
Wicked cool! I'm not familiar with goshawks they seem like a praregrine falcon similar stature speed appearance and lb for lb even tougher then big hawks and eagles very very cool I'm jealous and now I want a goshawk and I love how they so small but no problem dispatching huge pheasants etc. So cool!
A superb day of sport! Wonderful dogs and hawks! Greeting from South Carolina.
Fantastic video thanks for sharing
Nice, I love hunting trips like you
Seriously the best hunting I've ever seen, I'd love to be there.
great video, fascinating stuff
its cool to see the people working the dogs and birds to hunt, awesome!
Saw this in North Yorkshire last year. VERY effective!
Never seen this activity before...stunningly beautiful
same here

Very interesting exciting and wonderful work that the pheasant bird is hunted falcon💥💥💥⚘🌹🥀
Hunted most of my life and never like this. Pretty incredible!
Thanks for the video.
That's absolutely magnificent ! What a beautiful way to spend outdoors.
High class gentleman! Great job!!
Dakota u will call them bunch of pussyes
@@adictosalapescaex4887 they've found a way to do absolutely nothing and call it hunting.
It's amazing how the dogs is running through thick brambles like its nothing, does it not get hurt?
Good video. I have always liked falconry or whatever it is called
02:55 What a beauty of plumage.
This is the real meaning of haunting with goshawk. Really good done, that video. Great!
I’m going hunting. You have a hawk and a dog what you gonna hunt? Just watch and learn watch and learn. Loved this video!
Awesome vidéo ,all goshawk are very acetive
Got to love irish Fieldsports
Goshawk should have a little GoPro so we can see the kill.
Too small of a raptor
I love the dogs . Nice dogs . Very obedient .
That’s an amazing watch. How long did it take you to feel comfortable that the birds were ready to hunt with?
Amazing birds.

What a Beautiful Color Green!!!
GOSHAWKS: God's gift to falconers!
Beautiful country,i am from Indonesia,i hope i can visit Ireland,
Very kewl , but to much time retrieving the bird for me . I live in the midwest and have always wanted to try this with a falcon or osprey 👌...kewl video for sure 👍👍👍👍
Beautiful I so wanna goto Ireland to do this love from Dubai
I adore hawks
Same
يالغالي ترى فيه فرق بين الصقر و الباز
This is some aristocratic shit right here. “Hunting with a 12 gauge? 20 gauge today?” “Nah. Hawk.”
“And I thought buckshot was expensive!”
Ya know mideval peasants used falconry to hunt for survival, and it’s not actually that expensive (you don’t have to constantly buy ammo for a Hawk 😉). It just takes more time and commitment.
I don't think you'd want to use buckshot on pheasants, lol.
Stunning countryside.
very nice video and watching Don in action with a goshawk.
i'm love hawks ! good video !
Beautiful birds of prey
Cool, I'll stick to my shotty/gsp combo though I think!
cracking video i want to own a goshawk now...
You can tell when the hawk sees the pheasant before the dog flushes it. He gets to take off before you release it.
Ireland... beautiful...
Clean and class 👍🇨🇮
One of the coolest things I’ve ever seen
That bird is so impressive!
So classy so cool Us Middle Easterns love to do this so amazing Thank
Caça de alta classe cavalheiros, bom trabalho.
This was so fun to watch, and i don't even like hunting :o 10/10
Do you like eating?
Now this is falconry I could handle. I think an eagle might knock me over but I'm big enough to handle a goshawk.
Makes me want to live in Ireland
Good hunting !!! Very very good !!!
this is awsome an old tradition and custom.animals are better listeners than humans...
Ace vid lads the closest thing I have done to this is bolting rabbits with my ferrets for my mates Goshawk.
This is the type of conservation I like to see. Guns are useful tools when it comes to hunting and conservation, but they're also dangerous. It makes me happy that there are skilled professionals that can use animals like hawks and falcons as nature intended - hunters!
The dog is the real star here.
beautiful country beautiful birds.
They're not even a native species though. All peasants are native to Asia.
darren barkham is a shame they doing that.

It’s incredible how well their sight is. Every bird reacted before the guys carrying them when a bird flushed.
No, that just shows you how fast their reflexes are because the difference between a meal and going hungry can come down to reaction time
Nice peaceful hunting!
Примечательно то , что сокол замечает добычу еще прежде, чем она взлетит 3:53.
What a beautiful place

It's called mantling. It's just a thing they do to prevent other hawks from stealing it. They'll also sometimes puff themselves up to look bigger and flare their crests.

I'd be in the other field with my ferret, catching rabbits. Such is the poor man's way.

Do goshawks exist in the wild in Ireland or are there only Sparrowhawks here
Nice video.
Good. Thanks a lot for the video. :)
That is the perfect way to hunt 👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇷🍷🏆
I never seen that before my life that was so badass
this is one of the coolest things ever
I had no idea hawks are that vicious!
