Last Saturday, the “Carwinner” for young pigeons was on the program. 7,535 pigeons from Section 7 were unloaded at 10:30 in Pont St Maxence (338km) and on the way there was a strong west-southwest wind.
We sended 140 young birds, for the second week at widowhood / on the door system. The expectations were that before 14:00 de birds have to arrived (1650 mpm) and this was a good expectation because at 13:52 3 birds arrived at the Noordbeemdenweg and were clocked at 13:52-13:53-13:53.
At 14:00 there were 15 pigeons in the clock and at 14:10 there were already 60 out of 140, so they came off well. Finally good for 3x top50 NPO and 7 pigeons top100 NPO. With 34 pigeons 1:10 and 61 prizes of 140 young pigeons we could be satisfied with the result. Our club mate Diny van Oss from Velddriel did even better and wins the 1st and 4th NPO. Strong performances are won in our club PV De Maasbode, in all disciplines, from short to long distance and from ZLU / LD to young pigeons. Early in the club also often means early in a big competitons.
