I'm just thinking out loud here. Racing Pigeon fanciers, there should be a olr that rewards the most consistent bird in the series. Average Speed can stay as is, but why not emphasize High Point Champ Birds? For instance, 150m, 200m, 250m, towards Average Speed and High Point Champ only. (an optional sprint series entry for those that want it). On the 300m, top 10 leading High Point Champ Birds getting paid in clocking order. (first 3 of any bird in the trap get rewarded too) On the 350m, top 5% High Point Champ leading Birds paid in clocking order. (first 5 of any bird in the trap get rewarded too). After the final, the top 10% of Champion High Point Birds paid out with a 40th paid position cap, and the majority of the pool paid out to the High Point Champ Birds. That would prevent any pigeon that tagged along on the final races from getting rewarded. Your thoughts? I really want to hear what breeders think about this concept of a race?
