REDCHEQHEN Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 this seems to be the norm now. some with great returns and others struggling. and the worst thing is very few seem to be working back this year I've had 3 back in the last 4 days from the Andrezel race 2 weeks ago - where they were let up near thunderstorms, all hens - so there's always hope of late returns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest IB Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 this seems to be the norm now. some with great returns and others struggling. and the worst thing is very few seem to be working back this year My goal this year was to fly the SNFC programme entering a small team in each race and get a bird on every result. I sent from a pool of 13 birds to the 6 races and dropped 8 of them, half of those in Bovingdon, the first race, and another 1 in the second race Eastbourne, so the Inland Nationals cost me 5 birds and I didn’t get a time in from Eastbourne (or Bourges). Of the 13 that I started with, only 3 had been across the water before, and I dropped 2 of them, 1 in Reims and 1 in Bourges. I didn’t expect that, and nothing has worked back (yet) but I am still hoping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
