Michel VANLINT.... 1st, 2nd and 9th Nat.
Vichy
Where
will the story end?
They didn't even have to put away the flags in Zoutleeuw
after the victory from La Souterraine of 2 weeks ago. He did
even better with his 1st and 2nd National prize from Vichy.
This was his way to put an end to his season of 2004, which
seemed to be a story of thousand and one night!
"Anita and Amanda" were the once that were
present on the national stage this weekend, they scored like
this on youngsters in their nest bowls. Before they already
flew La Souterraine on over breeding . The winner still stands
on 7 pinions and the second national on 6 pinions but both
of them had a full wing.
"Anita" again is a direct of Willem
de Bruijn from Reewijk. "Amanda" is a direct
Oliviers-Devors from Kumtich. She was also
played on Argenton when she arrived home without a tail and
just within the prizes. Four days later she was put in the
basket to leave for Bourges in the Brabantse Union and again
she won a prize. Then another four days later, and still without
a tail she left for La Souterraine and she flew within the
national top 50. With her very little tail she had to leave
for Vichy too and now she won the 2nd national prize!
Michel Vanlint had 44 youngsters and 22 yearlings in for Vichy
and Michel scores with 35 pigeons within half an hour. With
the old birds he scored very highly with 1,2, 9, 26, 45, 46,
47 on national level against 2.460 other competitors! Do you
need to know more!
With the youngsters he starts with the 12th national and
the second pigeon should be around the 30th prize. This would
also be the first serial of two nationals with the young birds.
His third bird should be around the 70th prize and at 15.00
hours he had 30 of his 44 youngsters clocked and 20 out of
22 yearlings.
Michel started the season of 2004 with 18 couples of racers
and for more than once he scored very high. From La Souterraine,
2 weeks before, he also scored with 1st and 3rd national with
the old birds and he turned in 36 out of his 46 pigeons that
got into the basket. At that time he also scored well with
his 25 prizes out of 30 yearlings in the "Waalse Fondclub".
Luckily for the other fanciers Vichy was the last national
flight because who knows what the magician from Zoutleeuw
would have done more. The fact is sure that he’s an
obsessive fancier with his own perfect method and of course
the right pigeons that fit perfectly in the system and which
made Michel one of the best of the season of 2004!
