Think there was a pigeon called Blue Blitz that was 1st open snfc rennes one year then beat in to 2nd spot by decimals the following year same race point not to sure but the name prigle selkirk springs to mind ,any one else remember

[Guest strapper]

i dont think there can be a comparison between national winners.

different races /different distances /different weather conditions/different birdage...all can be brought into consideration.

Ron williamsons Champion Millenium Superstar would take some beating for the amount of birds it beat time and time again

[Guest jim lad]

j poole newmains first rennes 1975 mealie hen braedale queen very hard race

When I was a boy Jack Wylie was one of the nicest guys in the sport and gave me loads of encouragement. His doo was a cracker and its blood still runs thro my loft today! Probs a big bit bias but my uncle Jims doo Hoddom Dynamo has some outstanding results and is ready for next year! It is a life time ambition to be a nat winner and anybody that has the prize demands the upmost respect be it inland or channel. Will try again next year to win a race in the greatest club in the world!!!

Cheers Steven

Like i said not many pigeons on the Planet been better racers than that

[Rooster J. Cogburn]

John Proctor's "McFly" and "Lucky Jim" are two that have impressed me very much in recent times.Only pigeons into Scotland on the night from 600+ miles.The fact the birdages are so small makes it all the more impressive when you think of the work those pigeons had to do on their own.

 

Into my Fed "Flora Macdonald" the Anderson Bros 1939 Rennes winner is a bit of a legend.

Into whats known today as Section D

you'd have to hand it to Jock Watson's 1975 Avranches winner on the night.

Or

Stuart Peaston's 1st and 2nd Avranches on the night

 

Got to take your hat off to any National winner really whilst still taking into account it may not be the races best performance

[alec guinness]

For me it would have to be one that was won in the West Section.

 

 

same for me,

[Rooster J. Cogburn]

same for me,

 

Aye its not easy to win a national into the West Section.Theres been/is a fair few fanciers through there that could easily fall into "best ever" category despite not actually winning a national

just an opinion lewis,all national winners are fantastic and make the fanciers the stuff of folklore,hope you got your trophy mate,the night was a great success and seeing some of the north west federation trophies going back decades lined with famous names past and present it was a priviledge to present them. :) :)

[jim cowie]

there has been a lot of outstanding birds clocked in the north section that never won a national,including the six gold award winners.so an all time great has to be "marlene,s girl".

1st open from andrezel 626mls on the day for Davie Pirie Aberdeen.
