“For me, with Harry a dream come true. Never, really never I will sell Harry! My dream remains in my loft “— Jan Hooymans, Kerkdriel
The year 2009 brings supercrack Harry “immortal glory” … in this season won this ultimate racer everything there was to win! He did what no pigeon on the world did earlier yet and maybe never will imitate: winning 2 NPO races (Against masses pigeons) and a 3rd NPO (also against large numbers of opponents) … and that in just one season, and at the toughest discipline: the long distance! And … ..let on: with 3 different weather types!
The entire 2009 season, “Harry” was in great shape … he won no less than five first prizes and two second prizes in clubs! But a year earlier in 2008, as inexperienced yearling, he showed on a heavy middle distance race with headwind that he ‘is born with it’ … 1st Morlincourt against more than 500 pigeons and 19th against 20,920 pigeons! But also at a spicy long distance race from Chateauroux (over 600 km) the promising yearling “Harry” won the 21th NPO (1,198 meters per minute!). Don’t forget that Harry as a youngster just had some training flights (not overclocked) …
Nowadays “Harry” is the boss in the breedingloft of Hooymans and not without consequences…Today he is already father and grandfather and great-grandfather of several top ten placings NPO. Here is a summary of his breeding performance.
