The seventh and final race that counts towards average speed and champion bird was 326 miles Thursday from Garrison, Montana. This was definitely an unusual race. The winning speed was 1725 ypm. So it was a fast race with 27 birds on the first drop, which ended up being the biggest drop of the day. The second and third drops were right behind them, and then after that there were a lot of groups of only 1 to 5 birds that came in sporadically. Most birds came in from the North right down their normal flight path. We did see a few birds come out of the west and a group of about 15 came in late out of the East. We didn't notice any coming back out of the South. Even the birds the next day were still coming out of the North. So for a slight tail wind day, it was a tougher race than expected.

We will be sorting birds Monday and Tuesday into three groups:
1. Birds going to the Doubled Down 400 Mile Race
2. Birds being shipped back
3. Birds the Breeders don't want back.
If you are wanting to enter the Double Down 400 Mile race, which will be held in approximately two weeks in conjunction with the Evolution One Loft Race, please send in entries ASAP. Checks or Credit Cards preferred so we have an easy means of canceling payment if we don't get at least a 100 entries for the 400 mile race. Any birds left in the loft after the final race are eligible to be entered into the Double Down 400 Mile Race. If we have enough entered by Tuesday, we will resume training the Double Down Race birds on Wednesday going 40 or 50 miles. Birds that ae wanted back by the Breeders will NOT be trained.
Perch Fee - $35
Entry Fee - $100
If you are wanting your birds shipped back, let us know ASAP.
