[Wiley]

Who would you say would be the best distance fancier in Scotland from 500 miles?

[tiger]

Without doubt in my opinion

John bosworth and has been for decades

[novo10]

John hodgkinson

[VMS]

Results wise Peter Virtue by a county mile,but there in no best fancier IMO to difficult to gauge due to different locations

[DJWa]

look at the record books

and see who has won the section averages the most from all sections

 

and you wont be far away

No in the SNFC tho so difficult to gauge against but a quality fancier no doubts

How many gets them in that London after 13hrs? And what makes a difference between the north and south?

forget the snfc averages that faviours certain areas over others

 

the section averages are the truest guide

as your competing against fanciers in your own section

I can name that when the flying gets that way dal, that usually get them in those conditions that’s all I am asking for is the names. Difference between north and south I could t say until this season when I am racing both north and south

Well quite a few names Ryan in Scotland will spring to mind....too many to list......14..15...16hrs not easy in any race never mind weather conditions within that time.

not many fanciers score in the 7 nat races in any year, great to win section averages, but J F Bosworth has win the nat ave more than anybody,

and if you beat him in any race, you are normally well in,

there are top fanciers in every section in scotland its hard to pick the best as location plays a big part of results in scotland but when the going gets tuff its the same names that pop up

Jock McKenzie of Kingsbarns formerly Anstruther. Record speaks for itself sending only a couple of birds to most nationals. Always there or there abouts. Jock's birds win for lots of others also, the sign of a great loft!
