That was a race from mid season that i looked at. We started with 31 Memebers overall and 1191 Pigeons our first young bird race 2024
The stats i gave before was from a old bird race midway into season because thats when the big lists Like ReG come into play i just used to to show the different variations of the levels like RV RegG Reg etc

We are 7 clubs which 1 club only has 1 member. But thats why clubs have no value in germany and is counted for literally 0. We have an internal championship in our club for the first ace pigeon of the club and the winner gets 20 bucks and thats it. But nothing official or anything like that.

Ok so a Rv is like a medium fed here on a good day
What is the one you won 3 times I’m just trying to see what you term as a combine as it’s all new to me

Well done
I understand better now
A combine would be a Reg G

I wasn’t judging you Leon only trying to understand what a combine is good luck with your plans

Exactly that’s all that matters and determination to try each year
I have had 7 years of pure effort I must admit I need to find that kind of effort for this year as I lost my way these last 3 months after few issues outside pigeons ,
When 100 per cent effort drops in sprinting here the results go the same way there are always people giving the 100 per cent with better circumstances in there life

What I can say to you Leon is to be careful when judging Club wins in the UK

There are some ultra competitive Club wins

An example

In the West Mids we have "The Super Club" that are affiliated to the Worcester Fed. They send arond 120 birds a week BUT it's a 5 bird limit, comprising of the finest birds from a lot of the very finest fanciers racing for good money. So in black and white it might look like a 1st versus 100 birds. In actual fact, a 1st in that Club is a super super achievement - cos you take on "the best" from "the best"

Thats good to know and thats why i asked about the dynamics of it over there. Wasn't judging it was more just asking on how things work over there
