training young birds

[Guest Wee Gaz]

what distance do you start training  your young birds and how far do you go

[Guest shadow]

20 miles until they beat me home then move them out further once racing 20 miles twice per week do not start training until they are ranging anything up to 2 hours a day

[j.childs]

we start training at 12 miles....when they start beating us home we move further on

once ranging for a while i start at 1 mile then gradually take them in  stages of 5 miles each stage they have to fly straight home until i move them on, before racing starts i like to get them at least 60 miles
