YB TRAINING QUESTIONS

[Guest SPORTKA]

Hi all, I have been training for about 10 days now and last week when it wasent lashing down I managed to get the birds out for 3 tosses from 20 miles,  the first toss they were back within 15mins of me but on the second toss they were on the missing for 3hours

(horid feeling) the last toss on thursday they were around 30mins behind me even though on this occasion I had flown them around the loft first.

 

I am not sure on what to do this week as the weather here is overcast and looks like it will be raining all week, should I keep on training and if so how far do I go also if I give them a break this week can I then continue from the 20 mile mark or do I need to come back nearer home?

 

Thanks in advance for your help Chris.
