We raced 20 birds this weekend, got all 20 home on the day. We had a drop of 5 placing 37th-41st vs. 442 birds, all 5 are in the Top 10%. We also bred the 26th and 35th placed birds for other flyers in our club.

Race 1: Fort Wood: Tough 125 Miles

Our first pigeon, PROPIGEON.COM 726, placed 6th club vs. 123 birds and 16th combine vs. 371 birds. We shipped 12 and got 12 on the day - 3 of them being in the top 10%.

11th Toss: 90 Miles: Rolla, MO

Birds had a 5 to 10 mph side wind, a bit hazy on the course this morning. They did around 1100YPM which is good for a South Easterly wind of 5 to 10.

Next weekend is the first 125 mile race, weather permitting! Check back for results...

10th Toss: 65 Miles: Bourbon Exit

The weather was great and they had a soft tailwind today. We took them 5 miles short of the 70 mile point.

Release time was 9:15am and arrival at 10:30am; that is 1525 YPM (52 miles an hour)!  -They were already in the loft when I got back, so it was actually a bit quicker.

The season opener is in 2 weeks...next weekend we go 85 and the final 100 mile trainer. The first race is 125 miles.

9th Toss: 47 Miles: 2nd St. Clair Exit

Heavy fog this morning, we had to wait until 8:50 to release. They handled it like champs! They made it home in 1hour and 3 minutes which is 1313 YPM!
