bullcock Posted August 8, 2015 Report Posted August 8, 2015 71/71 last week at present 45/70 this week from Otterburn Not got a bad word to say about any race controllers as they do a great job, but does anyone else think liberating 15 minutes apart is too short, maybe 30 minute? and I would have like to have seen Glasgow aand Lanarkshire lib together when their was so many feds waiting for a slot, JMO.PS, I have 3 strays at my loft, one from NW fed.

The route is over congested and,yes, if one batch turns back for whatever reason 15 minutes are unacceptable.I raced with Glasgow today while a neighbour raced with Ayrshire. At one point when 2 pigeons arrived we had one each from separate liberations.I would never condem a race controller as he has a very difficult job with huge responsibility.With hindsight something complicated what should have been plain sailing today.
