Best sprint pigeon in The Netherlands 2019 - 5 prizes

This man needs no introduction. We reckon most Belgian fanciers, as well as many fanciers from abroad, are familiar with Gino Clicque.

We take a look back.

In 2017 Danny de Voogd invested in a number of marathon birds, hoping to excel in the extreme long distance competition. Today, two years later, he gravitates more towards his old favorite competition, rather than to marathon racing. As a result, his carefully crafted long distance breed will be auctioned in a total sale on PIPA.
