ChrisMaidment08 Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 im going to be honest on here to all that are on line i trained and helped look after someones birds if i beat him it was always a fluke i had a bird from saints 4 club 12 fed i was chuffed he told everyone it was a fluke only 12 on day one day he reared up and said i let his birds go in power lines three members of my club were ther letting go i tought him a lesson by letting go one of his birds go long before the rest he boasted to every one how good this bird was he put 100 on it in pool money it never came home when birds are all tossed together trained birds come home if ill or not untrained bird??????

Guest bigda Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 the only thing i could add to that mate is your birds where struck by the hawk and your mates birds were not, or at least don't know much about what it can do, and yours took off or went down through trees with fear. till they show up and sometimes they don"t i had a mate who trained 60 ybs for three week 1mile 3mile 5mile right out till 40 mile then one day took them 6mile and got back 13 and still to this day has none reported or returned to him the peregrine has the same affect on the birds as a lion chasing you :'( :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
