Do you think a south wind makes that much difference over say 10 ml south to north

it wasnt just south Frank there was a lot of east in it aswell and yes the furthest birds usually win in a southerly wind and prob find a lot go on over the top and come back m8

[frankdooman]

Yes mine came back just didn't think it would make that much difference in a short race

Hi Frank

Lanarkshire are possibly the exception to that this week, have a look at the result on the fed website and you will see what i mean. Its very well spread out from front to back with perhaps the west section of the fed performing a little bit better which may be down to the light south east wind.

Cheers

Would lanarkshires be diffo cos the birds are not coming from the south?

Possibly but south east wind is a tail wind for all.

 

Dont forget to collect your power cable when dropping of disc.

[frankdooman]

Yes I seen that but put that down to the fact that your fed is as big east to west as south to north as rab says it's prob down to birds going past more than anything but the longer the birds stay at the lib point the better it suits the north of a fed
