JohnQuinn Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 John Hodgson, G, Rankin & son, Jim Hannah, Derek & Linda Hay, John Cosgrove & Son, Jim Cullen and there are more, all of these fanciers have been scoring for years at the races they Choose to do well in. They aren't interested in club racing so canny be judged against men who take that seriously, but compare their results in the races they compete in, against some of the afore mentioned fanciers and their results will stand up against them no problem.

Guest Davy Fleming Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 There are quite a few guys who are top class material. but from time to time they come across seasons that they themselves admit was extraordinary and One for this season must be Dave Pirie in Aberdeen and would say his results this season are something else. So good luck to them all when it comes.

I confess i couldn't keep up the momentum needed to win from start to finish of every season, no got the stamina for it but i have great admiration for those who can. The men i listed get equal admiration from me, because they have scored at the very top of distance races year after year and you know yourself how difficult that is to do. So that is why i listed those fanciers in particular because of the sustained performances of their birds.I do Not Disagree with any of your 3 choices and admire them just as you do, but i also think that distance men like those i named are due equal respect
