Guys as this is my first ob season I can't possibly form an opinion on what route is best as I've nothing to compare it to,seems to me when I've sent my birds to 130 mile mark I seem to have suffered more losses(last years yb racing inc) I seem to have more losses..weather that's down to bad birds,loft management or bops I can't say for sure,what I do know is that whatever route we go with the ybs I'll see what I've got left after 100 mile mark,and hopefully be able to put some away for nxt years ob season and if I'm in a position to still send some then I will as I don't have room to house a lot of obs and don't want to overcrowd,so I'll have to go with the majority in whatever we decide and hope we make the right decision..one thing I've learned this season is that this is a hard game were in and expect the unexpected ,I've had my highs and lows this year(as most of will have I'm sure),hope we he have a good end to the ob season and a good yb season,atb guys kenny
