Who Would Be Interested?

[Guest REDFOXKRAUTHS]

Dear Pigeon Basics members, a friend and I a thinking about running a one loft race for 2011 with similar rules to the current ones going, but with the difference of it being down here in Cornwall where the flying is tough, for this year (2011) as a trial we will be able to take 30 young birds, this will cost £50 a bird on a first come first serve basis with a maximum of 3 birds per entrant. On the basis of 30 birds being received this will put £1500 in to a pot where £400 will be retained for expenses, the other £1100 will be saved for the final two races where it will be a small prize for the first 4 which will be 1st £75 2nd £50 and 3rd £30 4th £ 25 (will be from around 75 miles) this will then leave £920 in the pot. The last race will be, Approx a week later with £950 to fly for split into 6 prizes of 1st £400 2nd £200 3rd £100 4th £75 5th £50 6th £25 7th £20 8th £15 9th £10 10th £5.

 

We are going to sit down and have a good chat about this but who would be interested??

 

Cheers for now

not for me it would cost me $185 to send 3 for £235 i can send 2 to for example the r.p.r.a whare the prize money is in the thousands.if you breed your best birds for a one loft race better to send them to the professionals and the chance of more prize money.only my opinion
