MAY 1ST OPEN SEASON

Good afternoon 

The 2024-25 Late Hatch season will be open for receiving birds on May 1st.

Wincompanion has been updated for the new season so everyone is free to sign up for our 2nd season.

This coming year we will continue the Sprint series, colored bird option and with enough participation the 400 mile optional race after the season... We have also included 2 new features.. the first is on the 350 mile final race we will have a pick bird available. The second feature is along the lines of colored birds, but just with splashes.. The splash option will be for any bird that has 2 or more white flights.

We look forward to another great year.

CONGRATULATIONS

Good evening all,

First I would like to congratulate everyone who received a prize in the final 350 mile race. It turned out to be more difficult then anyone imagined.

Just a quick reminder, Becky is in Tampa for work conference so she is only able to receive texts. She won’t be back home until Wednesday evening.

Also, please send in w9s either by mail text or email if you have received $600 or more.
 
Also please let us know if you wish to have your birds returned. Right now I plan to fly old birds next year with my combine so I will use whatever is left. Please let us know one way or the other.
Here are the shipping rates
1 bird- $65.00
2 birds -$75.00
3 birds $85.00
4 birds $150 (2 boxes)
5 birds $160 (2 boxes)
6 birds $170 (2 boxes)
 
One last thing, next year I was thinking about doing a pick bird for the final race or a splash only category since I had so many white flight birds in the loft this year.. Let me know if either of those options would be of interest.
As many of you know we are accepting birds for next year May 1st until August 31st.
Thank you to everyone who participated this year and welcome to everyone who is joining us next year.
