what is a winner

[Guest WINGS 04]

what do you class as a winner is it a bird that is first or gets a tickets

[OLDYELLOW]

a winner is just that a bird thats won 1st anything else i class as a minor card winner

[Guest stb-]

There can only be one winner,

 

so i would say its a 1st,

 

a prize winner is a placed bird in the allocation of prizes

[pigeonpete]

a winner is just that a bird thats won 1st anything else i class as a minor card winner

 

Yes a winner is a winner, but i would class a top 10 section place, in  a national or classic, and consistency, better than a one off winner in a club race with smallish birdages :-)

 

but a winner is a winner :-)

[BLACK W F]

winner is the one thats won   ;) ;)

[Guest gladdo]

a winner is a bird that wins a race .... i just bought a bird and his mother won out of 13.600 birds now she a winner . doesnt mean her youngster going to be a winner though... mikey

A winner is somebody who is consistantly at the top of his game, a winning pigeon is the one at the top of the result sheet.

Well flying 80 miles in the East of the winner in a Westerly wind, say like in a National, is also a winner in my book. Indeed I often say the best bird on the day is not necessarily the winner!

[owen101]

at the minute not been in the game long

so my winner is the bird that gets home near the same tme as a bird

near the top

[Tony C]

A winner to me (and only me) is a pigeon that has put up a performance I'm proud of.

[DOVEScot]

Surely it is all relevant to the task, the first bird back to your loft will be a winner. As a new member to racing I would be happy to get them back to my loft and even happier to be first back in my club, a lot happier if it was first back in my fed and ecstatic if it was fist back in a national.

The further you climb up the ladder of success then the lower rungs don't count till you have to climb back down :-/

Welcome to PB mate,well done on two first fed positions,good job you were using ETS if they'd been rubbers you would have been thrown out for two in one thimble (stupid RPRA rules)

[clayton moore]

No this wasnt me.I wish no it was a pal of mine.

[demolition man]

a winner is a bird which won first place no other card matters

 

I disagree a fanciier flying in a small club may have many winners yet never gets in the fed,

yet a fancier in a big club may get many cards in the fed, My point is which is the best bird a pigeon with 4 x 4th and 4 fed cards or a pigeon with 4 wins a no fed cards competing in the same races. jmo the one with fed cards is the better pigeon

 

Regards

Maybe in some cases not such a stupid rule,have known people lose a race trying to get 2 rubbers in the same thimble.

[whiteknight]

the man in the small club can only compete against who is in the club and prohaps he dosent get in the fed because his club hasnt got the pull of the birdage or the are not in the line of flight ect with the wind not helping the pigeon with 4 4ths and fed cards the fancier might be living in the ideal spot with the wind and drag with him so the pigeons with four wins might be the better bird because it has to strike out on its own each week to win its club
