Delboy

She had 5 x 40 mile single ups if my memory serves me right.You must remember that she made a mistake at Gretna and came back feked, I waited on her throwing a flight before I started training her. This showed me she was fully recovered.

Yes Sammy it had scored from Falaise before and just missed Reims result as a 2 yr old so had plenty of experience.The fact is we don't need to be battering them down the road before their big event, as long as they are super fit/healthy.

The problem you have got getting pigeons etc from folk outside your area is the cost of carriage you ll need to pay.Im sure the pigeon fanciers in your area will be more than glad to help you out with birds and accessories, then you don't have any carriage.ATB

Cheers

Ill sell ye them lol.I know what ye mean Colin but its a pity things weren't cheaper for folk.My son and his girlfriend are proudly collecting my 5 trophies, yeeha.

Master breeders don't exist,experienced and good pigeonmen with good pigeons do. Trying to breed a distance winner is all about percentages and the more you give yourself a chance of breeding a good pigeon then obviously the higher the % of winners you breed. I can almost guarantee this, if you have a BULL COCK and run it with 10 different hens to get 20 ybs,I will breed more winners by taking 1 yb only from 20 different pairs.This is to breed a distance winner, it changes when you are wanting a sprint/middle winner because a decent Bull cock can go with a streeter and breed sprint winners.Sprint/middle distance winners are very easy to come by but Distance birds are hens teeth and you need to expand your chances of breeding them. My post that the Bull system is Shyte only applies to breeding distance winners.

I was 11th open Tours 630 mls with a pigeon that had Gretna 77 mls then trained only.IF THEY ARE FIT, HEALTHY, MOTIVATED AND BRED FOR IT, BOBS YER AUNTY.

You buy 2 tickets £60, you pay for a room £120 that's £180 before a drink is bought, you need £200 for drink, so we have £300-380 for a night out.Brilliant night out but not worth the money and ive won 1st west section twice this year, still not worth it.expletive remove, most pigeonmen aren't well off, we need a different venue for the presentation imo.

Bull system, bull sh it system, been there, absolute waste of time. :lol:

He actually thinks that lol
