Training Toss

[Guest lambrechts31]

HAVE BEEN READING WITH HORROR THE SAD NEWS OF GUYS TRAINING THERE DOOS, AND LOADS MISSING, SET ME THINKING, WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK OF SINGLE TOSSING, OR TOSSING 2 AT A TIME, RATHER THAN GROUP TOSSING ALL DOOS, DO YOU THINK IT WOULD MAKE IT HARDER FOR PERCIE ??

Better for various reasons like in my opinion it hone's each pigeons homing ability and teaches them to fly on there own and also if percy does get one it's not scattering your full batch in all directions. Beware though single tossing may get rid of a few pigeons in your loft that can't home on there own which again in my opinion is only a good thing.Does take a bit of time aswell

Tried everything over the years and had them taken by percy at one at at time two at a time three at a time you name it. Its just your luck if your doos are at the wrong place at the wrong time.Oh by the way just got my last one from Crawford at 13.35 from a 09.40 lib with the Newmains Van a bit scattered today.The pigeons are very reluctant to clear the lib site at crawford.A change of route might do there confidence a world of good.

spot on, we tried single tossing the last two years ,we put up one of our best birds first, it was just the first one that came to hand in the basket let it go and it was the only one we never saw again, so yes it is just your luck where and when the birds are let go.

But while single tossing do you think your losses from training are less or more?
