Ets... Are You For It Or Against

[clockman]

my club dont have it and got knocked back for a lottery grant ,just wonder how many would have if it was not for the their club getting a lottery grant

 

NOT MANY

[VMS]

why would thay need to put up £1,000. the T3 costs more than a bricon speedy set up, fact.

We need 5 pads and have the cost ov the clock Unikon system not much change out ov a grand fact

[jim]

just remember the old gits as you call them when theren time is up where will you be no new members coming into sport

the sport is dying some clubs will not exist in 10 years time '

 

it will end up one loft racing only im afraid

The happiness,enthusiasm and cheerfulness on this site is quite infectious, how can you tell the difference between a pigeon fancier and a greetin faced got.

[yeboah]

From a personal point I know that when my system was away for 3-4weeks getting battery replacement ,ended up on first name terms with the guy at unikon greetin wanting ma system back as it felt like a return to the stone ages when race day came round ( race sheets, no printouts ,catching birds on race day )

Now it's back Happy Days although do agree we are being ripped off .

[WulDon]

rubbers... only any good for controlling child birth these days!!! lol :emoticon-0136-giggle:

YES PAUL,id bet diamonds they would have it then,

BUT there again

[Fair Play]

Don't have a problem with ETS although most of our club use T3's only thing I have against them is having to change their set and strike times when doing the results when t3 is standard

[tigger ritchie]

my thoughts exactly

That s right the club payed for your clock batt

[MIK]

I just got the Ets Mega system this year....but i havnt set it up yet. I did use it for OBs but hand balled them over pad when they came into loft. I sent to my first YB race last week and used rubbers & T3. I just wasnt prepared to pay 40/50 squid on ets rings.

 

Its either breed less YBs or use T3 for me as the price of rings is shocking. But i will use it for OBs.

And me.

 

When we first got it they told us that we got a free club kit. After a year or two they then told us it was on loan and to use it we need to contact them for codes each year. I assume then if something goes wrong with the club kit they will replace it free of charge seeing as it is theirs and not ours. Got to look on the bright side.

Our club got Unikon ETS through a lottery grant 7 years ago but i would happily hand it back the morra and still enjoy my pigeons using a manual clock...Come to fk people just enjoy your pigeons whatever clock you use

Alan the hawks not the problem in this great sport it's the .*expletive removed* ing doo men .

[KMCK]

I have ets it's less stress for the bird IMO no need to catch them on return it also can save you a few seconds , but also on race marking so much quicker aswell to get the birds through, I think if you are not on ets in 5 years you will struggle

my old club in Netherburn got a grant a long time ago and we got t3's with it,still have mine but we bought our Bricon ETS and have no doubt it is far better than using rubbers on the birds,definitely a step forward in my opinion

mega rings were the cheapest at 1.10

[geordie1234]

It's a god send for me as my shifts change etc and sometimes can't be there to time in

 

 

Also the pigeons much prefer it......I ruined two yearlings that were coming well for me with catching them in a stall trap everyweek they ended up taking ten to 15 minutes every time they landed after usually being the first pigeon back for me

they are to give it to a similar organisation, so another club, that's in the contract
