OLDYELLOW Posted May 22, 2015 Report Posted May 22, 2015 Good Luck to everyone racing with the UNC today
REDCHEQHEN Posted May 22, 2015 Author Report Posted May 22, 2015 Hows race going? Terrible - not at all as expected Certainly wasn't the expected 'blow home'
midnight_son Posted May 22, 2015 Report Posted May 22, 2015 According to a thread on Pigeon Chat, its not going too well. Leaders are quick, around 50mph but returns seem poor. Thats just based on a handful of posts so could be misleading of course.
Delboy Posted May 22, 2015 Report Posted May 22, 2015 Looks like a real stinker Some are blaming marking on Thursday and birds libbed less than 24 hours later for 340 miles.I don't think this is the only reason for the poor returns, do you?

REDCHEQHEN Posted May 22, 2015 Author Report Posted May 22, 2015 Only got half mine back - have a hen missing who won this race last year
Tony C Posted May 22, 2015 Report Posted May 22, 2015 Was perfect flying conditions down here in the southeast albeit a bit humid. I was expecting to see a few of them going over but see nowt.
