Joe tyre Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 I've had 8 short tosses from strathy etc which took some up to 4 hours my best toss was with fed for first time yesterday 20/21 and most within half hour so the fed training seems the way to go I think but everyone has their own way which works for them I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe tyre Posted July 18, 2019 Report Share Posted July 18, 2019 Only had 2 tosses with fed and by far the best I've had and my previous training of 8 tosses from under 8 MLS some were taking 3 hours and over so my advice would be train with fed after maybay a few short tosses on there own but everyone has their own ways whichever suits the fancier it's there decision but I believe in giving birds a few with fed at least but I believe not a lot of feds do training so good on Lanarkshire for doing it in the first place and helping fanciers and the birds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George IV Posted July 18, 2019 Report Share Posted July 18, 2019 Thanks. So from the likes of Kelso the Lanarkshire birds will hopefully come north west via Peebles, Elsrickle, Carluke and Motherwell etc, strong west winds permitting?

George IV Posted July 18, 2019 Report Share Posted July 18, 2019 How many extra miles would coming round the Pentlands add on to a birds race? Most velocities are lower than they should be given the extra miles the birds are having to race? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
