Great pigeon guy. I echo his sentiments about supporting the local clubs. I don't feel one loft races are financially viable to everyone and the club does have expenses but nothing close to one loft races unless you're just sending out 1-2 birds.
I liked his interview on pigeon digest but this in person is way better way to really get to know a person. I loved it. Will you ever get Jelle Jellema on here? His birds fascinate me.
Regarding OLR winners i dislike the Usa system of all first drop being winners . In athletics horse racing dog racing etc the winner is the first to pass the winning line . 50 pigeons on the drop all winners its ridiculous there should only be one winner of every race and thats the pigeon that goes through the trap first .
