Stan, Which side would you fall on? The 1/4 or the 3/4? ---------- If they don`t kit,they don`t score. Color don`t roll and peds don`t fly. It`s a comp thing,understand?

Stan when was the last time you went around the country and watched all of the kits. Don did a great job this year in judging the kits in the finals and I think he was able to seperate the average from the good just fine. I feel that the judges do the best job that they can at weeding out the top kits and as you well know judging is a very thankless job usually. Joe

Hi Vello 99 I would fall into the 1/4. I was told by a World Fly judge that he would rate my birds in the TOP 30 IN THE WORLD.How do you like them apples.NOW LETS HEAR ALL THE NEGATIVE BULLSHIT YOU GUYS CAN DREAM UP ABOUT THAT.He's the only one in the states that has a pair of my birds. ---------- STARFIRE

------- Hi JUrbon: Hey I didn't say that .The world fly judge said he would rate my birds in the top 30 in the world.Are you saying now that the W.C. judges they send here dont know what they are talking about and don't know how to judge.He came from Indiana.If thats the case what good is the world fly. If I could get into the world fly by bypassing the club they have here i would.How come you guys dont believe anything anybody says but were supposed to believe everything you guys say.Here we go with the crests again.I'll tell you the same thing I told Scott==look up MUTATION=and study it hard till it sinks in. You guys are like a computer whose hard drive is full=you cant take in any new information. STARFIRE

Stan, if things come up then yes you can fly on a tuesday if so be it. How many years ago was this and I am sure you dont even know who the W/C RD is for your region??? Your club should have nothing to do with the w/c. On that judge was he the finals judge or the qualifier judge?? On the mutant once they mutate do they continue to produce mutants?? I am just asking because i dont know.

Hi Ken: If thats ok to fly on another day how come they flew the birds on Monday and put the fly down as being flown on Sunday?and how come when the judge stayed at my place and it was really windy,and I said I was going to fly on Monday ,they said I cant do that.I told them if they can do it so can I.So I flew on the monday and they were very insistent that the fly be dated for Sunday again? And yes the crests will breed crests again.But they are not consistent.Some will be crested to some degree(from a curl on the head going to the right or left or a full blown shell crest or a peak crest)thats with a crest and a plainhead.If I mate two crests together I get a pretty decent crest on some and curl or some other kind of Crest,maybe a half crest on one side.Thats the mutation .The birds are not supossed to have a crest and its always trying to revert back to the plain head .But its interesting breeding them and I have fun with them. And the good ones are all tight high velocity 30 ft spinners. STARFIRE

Stan, Im glad you have fun with them. Not sure why they would put sunday on the ticket? In my region wind is not a reason to move the fly day. Now if a big storm was coming in and you had enough notice and all the flyers were ok with it I could see moving the fly back a weekend. Now please tell me more about the judge? I dont remember a finals judge being from Indiana?

--Hi Ken: That was a long time ago.The judge was Charlie Enochs=he told me he was moving to Kentucky. He stayed the weekend and we talked about the birds.I showed him my records from 1968 on up to the present,and he said you could count the guys that had a line that long on one hand.I put out my kit that wasn't in competition and I said "these are a bunch of my bums"-.He watched them quietly for awhile,then he said Bums?I counted 168 pts. He asked me about my Comp. kit and I told him they were deeper and faster,and bigger breaks He told me if I had these birds in the states ,I wouldnt be able to breed enough to keep up with the demand for them.

Chuck, sounds like he really liked your birds. I think you should fly in the w/c again. If you choose not to then that is your choice, but it is unfair to say that they would treat you right since you really dont know. From what you explained they let you fly on Monday because it was windy on Sunday. They also did this to another flyer. Looks like they may have given you both a break. If i recall you have said that the other kit beat your score? Did you witness the kit?

Hey Stan don't put words in my mouth please. I believe in the WC and its judges 100%. Now that being said I wasn't there to see your kit so I cant say one way or another but I have heard it 1000 time that somebody always thought their kit was better. Hell I have even been the one saying it a time or two but I was always willing to put mine back in there to prove it. Your problems occured quite a while back and most adults learn to let things go after a while. I would be really currious to see what a top notch breeder such as yourself could do in the world cup and or the fall fly. We put our birds up year after year if for no other reason than to see how much they have improved. Lets be honest Stan, Of all of the peaple that enter the FF and the WC there are only a small handful of guys that feel they really have a chance and an even smaller handful that repeat it year after year. Now I am not saying that your birds dont roll and for that matter cant roll with the best of them but for you to make a statement like 3/4 of the kits flown arent even any good is pretty bold. I take my hat off to everyone that puts a kit up for a judge because they are the ones that have made this hobby move forward. Not just you or I. Joe Urbon

Ok now I am confused?? On a past post you said that you flew on Monday and they wrote the date as Sunday?? Which day did you fly?? I also would not call a score bogus unless I seen it. Another question is that you are telling people on how a judge was bragging on how good your birds are and then you question his integrity?? Also your club has nothing to do with the W/C fly. Find your RD and talk to him that you want to fly. If you are getting a raw deal then talk to the W/C GC.

Stan, go over to the WC site and look at the flyers who won each region, then look at their scores. Then look at the score they got in the finals. YOU CANNOT USE YOUR QUALIFYING SCORE TO COMPARE WITH FINALS SCORES....different judge...different conditions....different day. I see guys blow out 1,000+point kits in the qualifer, get told there is no one out there going to beat that kit. Then come finals time....flunk...couple hundred points at best. I say stop harpin about dirty oil and show us all how good your birds in the spring. I'll be looking for your name to show up for your region. Brian.

--Hi Brian: I know what your saying.Those scores in the thousands are just bullshit plain and simple.Guys in one club want to look better than the next club.Some scores in the club where I am are in the 6oo range for the qualifier,the they get 50 around points in the final.My birds are very reliable and consistent.I had a kit a few years ago that would do between 30-35 breaks every day,and I flew them every day.If any of my kits made it to the finals they would score about the same score as they went in.Thats if the weather conditions are about the same.When I fly a competition kit they will score about the maximum they are capable of every day.I don't do anything to peak them I feed them the same every day.By that I mean if I were to judge them on a Sun. say and they scored xx amount.I could judge them again on Wed.And Fri and they would score about the same.I find they perform more on a cloudy day-------- STARFIRE

Starfire, The more you talk the more I know for a fact,, Your a ROOKIE or a LEGEND in your own mind!! You sound like so many of the Legends I know that think if they don't win, they have been cheated.. When a guy tells me he had the best kit in the world and would have won the WC but he got cheated.. I just put him the Make believe La La land.. If your birds really break 30 to 35 times every time you fly them with depth and speed,, just keep flying in the WC and you will for sure win the WC..Probably several times.. If you don't do that,, then your just a LEGEND in your own mine and want to talk about how great you are without ever having to back up what you say.. SO what will it be,, Put up a kit in the WC and prove your the best in the world, Or keep talking about how great you are, while we all go,, Not again, Another worlds best roller LEGEND,, In his own MIND!!

Stan I dont think Milo was calling you an ass*** but rather touching on an earlier post from you that stated that the RD in your area call you an ass**** when you had thought you had won the region and qualified for the finals. I am not going to call you a lier like I stated earlier because I was not there. All I will say is 15 years ago dont mean shit nowdays. Just put the birds up and shut up all of us sceptics. If your kits are as good as you say then we will surely all owe you an apology. But until then please refrain from comparing your score and what one judge told you 15 years ago to the kits flown today. You have more years raising birds than I but that does not constitute a champion. Hard work and determination do and you must also be able to accept defeat and also be willing to give it another try.

STAN, I'm sorry my last post may seam a bit like an attack.. OK, it was rude. LOL Thing is Stan, being a winner takes a lot of hard work and a willingness to look at things honestly.. I have won flys I didn't think a lot of and I have flat out had good flys that I felt the judge must have been watching another kit.. I don't fly for them, I fly for me.. I enjoy hearing what others see and think about the birds.. I will take constructive criticism and learn from it.. Even when I don't agree with it.. LOL Hear is an example Stan, This last fall fly, just over last month.. In the 20 bird comp, I have what I feel is one of the best deep kits of rollers I have had in a while.. They weren't on the day of the fly for sure, but I felt they scored more than the judge gave me.. When he gave me the score sheet he said,, They scored at least twice what I gave them, maybe more but I couldn't score them.. about that time, I looked down at my score sheet and in big writing he wrote, HAVE TO KIT TO SCORE!!!!!!!!!!!! Now to my way of thinking, a kit breaks 40' to 50' they don't get back to the kit like a 20' kit.. To this judge, they made the kiting sloppy. Stan, I have lots of score sheets, but that one sits in my front room hung on the wall where I have to see it 100 times a day.. Why? Do you have any guesses? I pulled the not so deep 11 birds from that same team. Rolling from 20 to 30 and scored 233 pts the next morning.. Knowing what this judge scored and why.. Helped.. Stan, when you let what one man or 10 men think about your birds stop you from competing and comparing your birds with the best breeders in the world.. YOU ARE A LOSER and a QUITER.. No one can ever beat a man down unless they consider what others think about them, more important than what they think about themselves.. Same applies to your birds.. The only way you can lose, is if you fly and let others actions be the reason you have quit trying.. I mean this in the best way Stan.. I hope you take it that way.. I hope they are having a competition the day of my funeral.. I will have my wife or kids fly a kit at my funeral and I want them scored!! LOL Stan, the fun and respect doesn't come from winning.. It comes from being willing to play the game, win, lose or draw.. That is what the fly guys mean when they say,, PUT UP OR SHUT UP!!!!! KGB

Moisaics are a mutation as is crests. They both do not reproduce themselfs. To have birds that reproduce crests you have to have a breed cross.....because mutations do not reproduce themselfs. If you are reproducing crests you have had to have a cross..............am I reading this corectly? ---------- Snicker Rollers

Nick, "mosaicism" is the odd genetic "malfunction", not a mutation. It's just one of the strange genetic divisions that happens on occasion. Crests on the other hand are a simple recessive gene just like the color recessive red is. I've raised some crested Wests in my baldhead patterns which as far as anyone can dig up, haven't had other breeds crossed in. I know of several fanciers who have had the same thing happen with their balds. Obviously we culled them as we didn't want that trait. I can see where someone such as Stan could produce a crested bird from birds and then breed for it. It really is one of the easiest recessive genes to work with once you have it. In helmets it is very common for our breeders to cross our crested medium face helmets with our plainhead medium face. It is very common for plainhead pairs to produce crested young. Crest doesn't automatically constitute "cross". Brian.

Stan according to Bill Watson out of S. Ca. you aren't telling the truth about those crests and not crossing for it , in fact I just spoke with his yesterday again to make sure I had it straight , he said that " you showed both him and Kumro what you were crossing in for the crests " after he kept calling you on them being obvious crosses with or without crests. If you like I can give you Bills e-mail to straighten this out , Bill had no reason to bring this up in the first place nor did he even know about this site until I brought it up to him after he told me a story about "some" guy in Ontario . Mutations are the slight peaks , not the fully developed crests like some of your birds are displaying.

Yep sure Stanley. There is only one other person that has crested rollers that I know of. He is here in Vallejo Calif. I also know he tells the guys that they were crossed at one time to get the crest. I also know that a few get a top notch every once in a while. Most which go back to the Hilton Blacks wonder why that is???
