Pros Roosen is owner of best Belgian Barcelona pigeon of over a five-year period. This is his 'Rosten' ring number 90.5328339, the bloodlines of wich came from the outstanding Dutch long distance fliers Frenken Brothers. The performances of the 'Rosten' over the past five years in the Barcelona national are as follows: 1992 - 438th Barcelona National (11,399 birds) ; 1993 - 180 th Barcelona National (13,343 birds); 1994 -149th Barcelona National (11,214 birds); 1995 - 306th Barcelona National (9,759 birds); 1996 - 800th Barcelona National (10,068 birds). Barcelona to the loft of Pros Roosen is 1,086 km (679 miles).

 

Other prizes that the 'Roston' has won are 1991 - 181th Provincial Argenton (1,141 birds); 1991 - 237 th Provincial Jarnac (2,952 birds); 1991 - 51st Provincial La Souterraine (364 birds); 1992 - 70th Provincial Brive (2,598 birds); 1992 - 259th National Narbonne (6,531 birds); 1993 - 32nd Regional Brive (1,006 birds); 1993 - 213th National Narbonne (5,929 birds).

 

After his fantastic succeess racing in the middle distance and sprint races Pros developed an ambition to become successful in the long and extra long distance races. He studied the International results to find who were the most regular scorers in all the International races over several years and this investigation led Pros to the loft of Frenken Brothers of Weer, Holland. In 1990 Pros purchased several pigeons from their loft and the success of 'Rosten' has proved how right he was.

 

'DE RAKET'

 

1st Ace Pigeon Belgian racing Short Distance Father of 88.5243953 'De Asduif' Grandfather of 90.5335977 'De Nationaal'.

 

 

Pros Roossen has been at the top of pigeon racing, not only in this province of Limburg, but in all of Belgium for over 30 years.

 

In 1979 main bloodlines then were from his father's loft crossed with the Van Sweevelt and 'Fabiola' and 'Mona Lisa' bloodlines from Jef Carlens. It was from these bloodlines blended together that his outstanding pigeon named 'Supercrack 327' was born in 1978, and he is still alive in 1997. The bloodlines of 'Supercrack 327' are very much present in most of Pros Roosen's ace pigeons such as 'De National' 1st National Bourges in 1993, wich was bred from a grandson of 'Computer I' when paired to e sister of 'Supercrack 327'.In 1992 Pros Roosen had a pigeon selected to represent Belgium in the Olympiade in Las Palmas in the sport middle distance class. This pigeon, ring number 90.5328321 whose name became 'Olympiade', ws bred from a daughter of 'Supercrack 327' when paired to 'Hond', wich was also the father of 'Magic star' the 1st ace middle distance pigeon of Belgium KBDB in 1994, bred by Pros Roosen and raced by Jaak Koninx.

 

'HOND'

 

Father of 'den Olympiade' Cat Sports Middle-distance Gran Canaria 1993, 'Magic Star' 1st Ace Pigeon Middle-distance KBDB 1994, Koninx Jaak, Zonhoven.

 

 

Sire of 'Hond' was 'Computer II' winnner of thirteen 1st prizes and 80 other prizes. He was also 1st ace pigeon in the Province, short distance, KBDB 1989; 2nd ace pigeon in the Province, short distance KBDB 1988; 5th ace pigeon of Belgium short distance KBDB 1988; 5th ace pigeon of Belgium short distance KBDB 1989 and 6th ace pigeon Provincial KBDB 1990. Dam of 'Hond' was a daughter of 'Computer I' wich was an ace pigeon of Belgium KBDB and was also ace pigeon BDS.

 

Both 'Computer I' and 'Computer II' have the same sire which was the famous 'Tom' of Jos Soontjes of Wommelgem from whom Pros Roosens purchased the best lines. Roosens purchased the best lines.

 

Another outstanding pigeon for Pros Roosen was 'De Asduif' which in 1991 was the 1st Ace Middle Distance pigeon of the Province of Limburg and also 1st Ace pigeon middle distance of the LDS 2,000.This crack pigeon also finds his origin in the Soontjes x 'Supercrack 327' bloodlines. His sire was 'De Raket' Which was an offspring of 'Computer I' and dam of 'De Asduif', was a daughter of 'Supercrack 327'.

 

When you read the list of prizes won by 'Supercrack 327' you will agree that he has earned the name 'Supercrack 327'. As with his and all the other birds listed these are single performaces without any duplication. I am of the opinion that 'Supercrack 327' is the best racing pigeon that has ever lived. I do not know of a pigeon with a better racing record than he has!

 

'Supercrack 327' also won, 1979 - 3rd Ace Pigeon Yearlings De Belgische Duivensport after loft mate 78.5174310; 1980 - 4th Ace Pigeon Mid-distance De Belgische Duivensport; 1982 - 1st Ace Pigeon Mid-distance De Reisduif, 2nd Ace Pigeon Mid-distance De Belgische Duivensport; 1983 - 2nd Ace Pigeon Mid-distance De Belgische Duivensport, 2nd Ace Pigeon Mid-distance Vlaams - Waals Fondclub, 3rd Ace Pigeon Mid-distance De Reisduif. He was co-winner of 1981 Golden Pigeon of Belgium, Superstar Middle-distance of Belgium - De Reisduif, Best Loft of Belguim, De Reisduif.
