“Fondclub de Glazenstad†Pau 2010

 

Hans Knetsch, despite the weather, wins from PAU

1st "De Glazen Stad’ 1st Div. 12 De Kuststrook and 3rd National ZLU

 

At Pau Hans nails it despite the weather, NL06-2125672, a widower, was clocked at 12.04 hours with a velocity of 981.574 mpm. In 2009, this black chequer cock was very early at Perpignan, when he was placed 38th. He is another van Wanroy crossed with the Batenburg hen, the "Kweekmoedertje" NL94-1340075, this crossing works well for Hans. She is the grandmother of "Jopie" 3x National and 3x 1st "De Glazen Stadâ€, and "Maarten" 1st National and 2nd International Narbonne in 2009 and there are a few sons and daughters with National positions.

 

Hans returns were fantastic this heavy Pau, 4 pigeons in the top 20 in "De Glazen Stad" 1st, 6th, 15th and 20th. The harder the better for these van Wanroys and at the loft visit it is a pleasure to see how Hans deals with his "children". After St. Vincent he only raced in the morning liberations of the ZLU races because he prefers these races. His first bird from St. Vincent, also early, he timed in the Pau clock (still nervous) and it could therefore not be counted, fortunately there were more so not too much time lost, in both races he did well.

 

Now as I write, I see on the site of the ZLU that Hans also timed a very early pigeon from Bordeaux (same day in the evening). If Hans can maintain this form, what still awaits? Because I have in previous reports written so much on his system and pigeons, I would like to remind new fans to read again about this champion in the reports of recent years.

I notice that although Hans and his pigeons are very popular on some sites often reports about him are not posted. Hans is only involved in a sporting sense and devoid of commercialism. Perhaps that is the cause.

 

On behalf of all fanciers congratulations on this great victory!
