Shortcut Lofts Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 Agree with BANDIT, the ones that win and keep coming. Have to admire J Donalson from Peterhead. Looked at his results and again this year he wins (i think) 2 x Section G from the distance sending 4 - 5 birds. Top Man. Noticed one of his bird was clocked twice at the distance, one race 400+ the other 2-3 weeks later 600+
Chris Little Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 Dave Impett from Blackpool is sheer class too, his family of Bruggeman birds are class 750 miles from Tarbes
Pompey Mick Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 Depends what you mean by 'Channel birds'. In my loft every OB is a 'Channel bird' and quite a few YBs if you count Guernsey. Our shortest Channel race point is Picauville 99mls, Guernsey is slightly further 112mls. After a couple of Inland openers every race in the Solent Fed OB programme is from France, so Channel birds are two a penny down here. Most of our Club races are short to middle distance so practically any pigeon strain should be capable of Channel flying for me.

Agree 100% as most of the birds here in Northern Ireland also have to fly the Channel
pigeonscout Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 What strain has not won a distance race?
pjc Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 What strain has not won a distance race? milers?

We have seen so called distance birds lost form 80 mile and so called sprint birds win 500 mile races.
