Hello all, I have been a hunter for years (gun, bow, and falconry), have done a bit of taxidermy, and I am a NRA Instructor for pistol, but have never trapped. I really want to get into it and have been researching a bunch on it.
Does anybody live in Ulster County that could possibly help me out. I was hoping to find somebody that I could maybe check out a trap line with and see what it is all about. I took the course about 10 years ago, but have never actually trapped. Thanks for any help!

Welcome to the Forum and to the world of trapping. We have some trappers that live in Ulster County on here, hopefully one of them will get up with you. Ulster County also has a County Trapping Organization but I'm not sure when or where the meetings are held, I'll see if I can track down that info for you!
PS: Couldn't find any meeting information but the President is Tom Zeider and he can be contacted at 845-647-4631

I see that you're into falconry.....each year the NY Trappers Forum holds a Fur Rondy in July and that would be something I'd love to see...Any chance that could come up and perform a falconry demonstration at it this July?

I can definitely try. I breed my birds in the summer, so they are usually raising chicks at that time, but if one does not pair up I could do a demonstration.
