How Can East Beat West

[big blue bar]

i fly in a east coast club and all our race points are on the east coast there is clubs which are on the west and are filling the fed every week . to explain 1st race was from arniston we get a overfly of nearly 20 miles on the west clubs from witton castle we only get 7 MILES ( DOES THIS MEAN THE BIRDS TO HAVE ROCKETS UP THERE ***** TO BEAT THE WEST HOME ) should there be a breaking point in racing to make it fair ?

mate you will find nearly all fed winners in scotland will be on the west side the last 4 weeks with all the east winds , will be a different story when the winds in the wesy and there held to the east side you wont complain then.

 

but the other side will , good when all sides get thre turn

stb i was not taking a dig at west clubs . where we are placed on the map it seems unfair to our birds when one week we get 20 miles on some then next week have only 7 miles even the wind does nt help that mutch . your not saying the birds take a different route ? they still follow the land no matter where they fly from dont they ? or is it that the birds are nt good enough

I no your not havin a dig m8 i am in a very easterly position just now myself and from some of the race points at the start give a good few miles overlfy to members west of me ,and the birds come back from the west with the east winds , only to be exspected ,

as the race points go further out the overfly changes as i get a lot more on the ones in the early races and the wind wil eventually turn west so birds wont be comming back on them selves , i dont mind this as others get there turn and makes some people happy .

i think that this must be a first that iv'e heard of the west having an

advantage over the east.wind direction and weather make racing and always

has.uv just got to live with it ,the wind will change to the west soon,[maybe].
