was a bit worried Peter first pigeon came alone and trapped well ,second about 3 or 4 minutes later and third for us about 6 or 7 minutes later ,then a big gap of around 20 minutes before they started tumbling in for all club members

for me ,thats enough WRM .first race of yb season for us last weekend ,due to the birth of our new Son ,not trained for a week ,they did have 4 @ 10 mile and 1 @ 15 mile the week previous ,didnt go out on Monday and only evening Tues,Wed .1st 2nd and 4th club ,and looking to top fed . thats fine if it works for you Wiley ,not possible for me (wouldnt do it if it was) all roads they say lead to Rome. you are far more knowledge-able than me ,that i know ,and i respect your opinion , but mine is diffrent

30 mile a day all week ?? ouch .how far is the first race ?? .personally if youve had them down the road every day for a few weeks ,i would try a few old hens in ,and just leave them play about the garden ,and not train ,send them on Friday and wait for a good result.

well done ,hope weather stays dry so you can put all your laundry out
