REDCHEQHEN Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 This is the scenario - it happened in my own club Club mate gets a bird from 430 miles but the battery has gone on his ETS system and won't clock the bird inHe comes to you to use your system - at which there is a bird above ready to drop for you...........

eastcoaster Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Let him time in as he has a bird before you and if you would stop another fancier winning just so you can win then get another hobby ,jmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJWa Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 It wasn't to win, this was for 4th & 5th club remove your clock and put in his one to your base your bird will still record with his clock in the base this is if your using unikon , by the time you change the clocks and get to your pad your bird should already be clocked , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Hay Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Bad sportsmanship if you dont let the other person clock in first. How did it go in your club redcheqhen ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDCHEQHEN Posted November 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I suppose I didn't 'set the scene' properly, you would have had to run in the path of the landing bird in order to put in the other persons clock - and bird would have had to have gone over the pad thereby putting off the other bird from landing, he waited and clocked his own in first, followed by the other fancier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony C Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I'll put it this way, if my clocking system failed and I went to another fancier to time my pigeon in and he/she was in the process of calling in their own pigeon I would stand back until its timed then time my own pigeon in. My misfortune shouldn't impact on someone else's race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arranview Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Personally myself if my clock failed so be it I'd just enjoy the rest of the race and look forward to the following week I'm not that desperate to win a minor prize each to their own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter pandy Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 It was the next garden on the allotment - less than 10 yards!Once again it would be circumstances as one has a couple of weeks regarding low battery life on the ETS Clock and we all know an old car battery requires charging back and forward so it would be self inflicted and how you get on with your neighbour. Personally I would let him go first as It is good manners and SPORTSMANSHIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
