Hoods

The majority of our hoods are cut from pale tan hide, and individually dyed to give a variety of well defined colours with depth. All hoods have plumes of genuine kangaroo in contrasting colours, and there is a choice of kangaroo or Bracetech (fabric) braces in complimentary colours. Each hood is entirely hand made, so individual colour choices (dark brown, royal blue, red, green and black) can usually be provided. We have large stocks of hoods, in sizes from the smallest jack merlin up to the largest eagles.

Please note the fit of our hoods from the pictures provided. All hoods, regardless of style, should fit like those shown here. They should be:

1. Clear of the eyes
2. Snug against the face, EVEN when the braces are open, and
3. The beak opening should be clear of the mouth parts for comfort. ALL of the mouth parts should be visible.

Think of hoods you have seen in the past. Irrespective of the quality of manufacture, if they do not pass 1, 2 and 3, they DO NOT FIT!
