it is fact that since  i joined the glasgow fed  2006,i have noticed a swing in the balance of power so to speak with the west winning /topping the fed more than ever even from easterly race points ,and in west winds ,i agree that the alexandria birds in head wind do a dog leg about 3/4 miles from the finnish line. evry week my birds come from  an easterly direction some times slightly n/east  even from race points such as the old west coast route exeter libbed in a  25 mph n/east wind the whole way and where did my bird come from yes thats correct out the east . you cant get more westerly racepoint than exeter  into scotland ps  it was 1993 if anyone has the old westcoast combine result ,maybe alec guiness   not many home on the shift after a 9 am lib 373 mies ,i lifted a few hundred quid

yes mate i think i was 4th combine with an all pooler nom ,red cheq cock , i had him set up to go to rennes but after the disaster out of sartilly  national ( sent four and never seen a feather) a few weeks earlier  i chickened out and sent him to exeter instead timed at 21 :36 .beaten by a yard for topping the fed .

im not sure but when i see them cumming dumbarton is right behind them if you know what i mean. ive timed out of the inland national with the snfc a few years back sent 3 timed 3  big del will remember this race( he had a great race as well timing lots of birds ) i was standing with him at airdrie waiting on our clocks. my first bird came from helensburgh direction that is north west of me , ps mel bell won that national  he was 1.5 hrs in front of me and i got 20 odd miles from  mel staying in coldingham . so what kind of dog leg did mine do that race ? in every race birds weave in and out dog leg east west north south following the contours of the country side ,unless as johno said if the are high above hills etc  they would come in a straight(ish) line
