Todays race was 280 miles with slight side on wind.

As the title states today we didnt win a 1st but regardless of that still a huge Win in our books winning 3rd and 6th in combine but also winning 5th and 9th against 4171 pigeons in Reg which i think is Fed in the UK.

super pleased with the result specially because this result came from the loft me and my father took over about 3 weeks ago from my uncle and that loft hasnt performed well at all this year so far which tells me that we are going the right direction.

You and your Dad took over a good loft Leon, I remember your uncle when i turned up at your home. He showed a lot of passion for his birds, and it was really good to see. Well done to you both, the new way forward.

Yes mate. My uncle quit the sport and his loft is also on our property. So me and my father took it over mid season about 3 weeks ago
