  22. Wish we had something like this up north . Do you lad who compete in this race only train ? No round the loft fitness ?
  23. Best of luck to dundee team .
  24. Might add the Sparra and I think it's a Merlin or hobby have been very active around these parts For weeks I find it keeps the birds very sharp.But must add they will not be out during month of February .
  25. Exactly 1+half oz .That is all it does not look a lot of feed but they are still flying 2.45 mins today .They trap fast as well in my new trap .Can't wait until racing starts .Only reason I am getting them out is I've been home for last ten weeks .So if it's half a chance they are out .
