SATURDAYS RACE

[just ask me]

 

i disagree with that statement, good birds will always come to the front true, but horses for courses as they say i know my  birds dont do well with the wind up their backsides ,but on their nose try and beat me .they are  not bad birds in a blow home just cant handle the wind behind them simple as that

 

would totally agree  certain birds for certain races  would u also they in general that birds with wider flights do better with the wind behind them just something i noticed  :-/

[REDROCKET]

loud and proud who would they 2 members be so i can compare my partnership to them.

Well where ever he lives or whatever the conditions he's doing something right.He's not only winning with them other people are so position of loft dosnt really come into play.

Do you reckon?  Thats why George had a dictaphone last time he came to manchester to see Les Green!! :P   

Ive never been to Mcalonys loft but ive looked at the results, long and hard believe me, now in one race i think 200 mile?  he took the 1st 9 out of 6000+ birds yet in between those 9 birds was 7 minutes, now either they live in a valley or an awesome spot, or there racing against a load of numptys, you tell me as you know where they are?

 

 

;D ;D with the prevailing west wind they do live in a awesome spot, but they win even when it's a fair wind for all of the fed and taking many of the top 10 positions at the same time.

i believe the race you were talking about john was from Ripon 160 miles approx.

hotrod,your right what your saying mate,horses for courses, the statement i was making was

your good birds will come to the front,i got the impression people were saying anything can win a fast race,ie  (fantail race) i myself had 45 birds away, in our club you pool 3 birds,my

1st was an all pooler as was my 3rd winning all pools out of 484 birds sent by club members, ps  this bird also won the first race.
