| If your question is a serious one, I wouldnt get too into all hat, I dont think anyone can really say that. For me I stick them in a basket if they win or just fly home is nice then thats all I need. Wing theory to me is a nonsence, I think its what is in its brain and heart that makes a winner. |

| i think this is like all the rest of these theories and is just thatm a theory........if you look at all distance winners they are not all the same, and the same goes for short distance birds too. |

| It was actually a Genuine question a friend was showing me his sprint pigeons and what he looks for all the way down the flights more or less wind resistance and the three/four primary's I think maybe your right though it's whats in their head and heart that'll get them home |

The N.E.H.U race from Melton Mowbray 21/4/2012 was won by Peel bros of South Shields, they took 1st club 1st fed, also taking 2nd and 4th club and 15 of the 25 birds clocked in the club......well done Peel brothers.
