Texas Hawking Association
44th Annual Field Meet
January 16-19, 2026
Lubbock, Texas
Meet program  The Texas Hawking Association proudly welcomes you to the 44th Annual THA Field Meet. If you need anything during the meet, please reach out to any of the contacts listed in this program. Any of our officers or volunteers will be happy to assist you. THA asks that all attendees be considerate of the cleanliness and care of your hotel rooms and common areas during your stay. Please clean up after ALL falcons, hawks, dogs, husbands, wives, children, relatives, etc. Members will be held financially responsible for any extra cleaning cost or damage to rooms. Your assistance will help ensure that we are welcomed back with the reasonable room rates we count on and enjoy. This is one of the most effective ways we can control our out-of-pocket expenses while we have a great time at the meet. Please also be considerate of the noise levels in common areas. The meeting room is left open for gathering each night after all organized activities. Please use this room in lieu of the hallways, atrium, and reception areas. We will not have a formal weathering yard. Since we’ve moved our meet to the panhandle, we have had low use of the weathering yard as people are out hawking or it’s too windy to weather birds. The meet hotel has some space to weather your birds if you choose, but please supervise them for their safety. If this is your first field meet, it can seem overwhelming. I encourage you to introduce yourself to as many falconers as possible, offer to tag along on hunts, and learn how to be a good steward of the sport. Take the time to sit and listen to recounts of field meets past and learn the history of Texas falconry. Field meets are not just for hunting but for reconnecting with friends and making new ones. I hope each of you enjoys this family reunion as much as I enjoy planning it. Happy hawking! Melody Lyons Meet Chair Texas Hawking Association
