How's your season been

As for us, we didn't race old birds, but managed to get ybs to race, ok, only 2 races eciting all the same, 1st one was Chepstow, sent 12 got 8 home, then we missed the1st Swindon due to bad weather, the 2nd Swindon we only managed to send 6, got a decent result, we were 6th club and 29 fed, only got the 1 bird in the clock,and 3 later in the day with 2 losses, after that the birds were dropping feathers so decided to call time on the season, all in all we were pleased with our only prize from 2 races, how did you think your season has gone, was it all you expected or was it a disappointment

its not been too bad for me lofty ,was 3rd in the first race then the club had a bust up so I joined another club and fed 30 miles south of me ,I had to jump the birds at least 100 miles to catch up with there programme , but they came through ok , the rest of the season they had strong head winds to contend with , and fly the last 30 miles on there own , but again they came ok , I have had a good few positions in the club and fed , I also joined the midland national , and sent to 3 races with them from france , I had good positions in section and open , I did not send to many young bird races but again left my mark in the club and fed ,so cant complain really , and I have plenty of birds left for next year .

We had a good season..even though we are in a pudding club lol with 5 wins ect..but we go off fed results due to getting stick for our club which is pathetic as we have best 2 flyers in the town in it ..but yes pleased with our season

average for us good returns once racing though as we never dropped a yb in 4 races took 4 positions in out first yb race, against darkies though its hard to keep up as the races get longer

Very hard darren. But if only for education it's perfect as they will make better birds as yearlings

did not fly full old bird prog too many other things on my mind but suppose done ok but should be doing a lot better y/bs was a disaster must have been hit at least 20 times out of 25 by percy birds just scattering all where lost a lot training only flew one y/b race and they came fine so roll on next season sean

Our old birds were fine till the 4th race then went off don't no why so didn't race them till the comeback races still wasn't happy with them so we stopped them.The youngbirds were ok we raced them in another club more corridor flying we were suited with them they were always in the top 6 and had the first four in a race and they won 11,fed and amal cards so not too bad we will be racing all the bird's in this club next season.

I had a good season, only missed cards in three races. Season ended on a real downer when I failed to time in a blow home race. There is always next year

Crap

lost so much time on trapping it was embarrassing, mostly my own fault, but my mate has just finished putting new system/front on loft, and got two fantails ready for nxt year so hey ho

That's only one race David you can double that with the club racing winnings

Top quality fanciers I should know raced in the same club as them and lost big time to them but the main thing was you never heard them shout about there pigeons just let the pigeons do the work and always shacked hands with the winner

our last race was last week, we didn't have a bad season, took a few cards, but hoping for a better one nest year when I will be able to fly the old bird programme with what`s left of my young bird team.
