This hood is proven and will fit your falcon like a glove once the correct size is established. It has more room around the eye than a Dutch hood and the gape fit is "Text Book". We think that this Anglo Indian design is the best for health, comfort and looks. A rouse and foot up is not uncommon within a couple of minutes of this hood being fitted. All hoods that require braces come with Nylon braces as standard (unless temporarily out of stock). All our non-blocked hoods are double lined to protect eye and feather.
