Lanarkshire Federation "Combine Average" winners are the brilliant GWP Macaloney.

 

 

This years' Lanarkshire Federation "Combine Average" winners are the brilliant GWP Macaloney. This partnership continues to record results that will never be equalled in the Lanarkshire federation. Their results year in year out are breath taking! To take the first 12 in the Lanarkshire federation and then first 13 as well as double first 5 all in the one season is world class. With bird age into the thousands, this makes it all the more remarkable. They are what you would call household names in the sport and are admired throughout the country as top class.

 

  Paul & Wullie Macaloney Champion loft Lanarkshire Federation 2019

 

Don't take my word for it just check the Duff awards the last few years!

 

Wullie and Paul Macaloney really are the masters of breeding/racing and their desire to better the result the previous week never eases. Their recent policy is to take out of their racing team their best racers and put them in the stock loft to preserve the winning gene pool. This policy is already working with many federation winners coming from these pigeons. 

 

This year has been a particularly tough Lanarkshire programme. This includes three National races.

 

1st Open federation winner for GWP Macaloney ,look at the sheer class of this pigeon             

 

 

The Macs have maintained a level of consistency that has seen them winning the Lanarkshire's averages for all races flown.They are the name that has most asking: "what time are the Macs in this week?" This is because of their remarkable level of consistency and respect from other fanciers. They are always looking to raise the bar with regular introductions from other top lofts but not many can match their phenomenal  Dream pair lines and M&D Vandenabeeles, which have been dominating the federation for  decades. But they keep trying to source better! Their policy is to put best to best, not focusing on lines.
