Playing System and Previous Victories

"We play on widowhood with about 60 cocks," explained Marc, who is an established name in pigeon racing. His impressive career includes two national wins, a dream for many pigeon fanciers.

In 2018, he won the 1st national prize at Agen against 4,541 old birds with "Roste 75". This pigeon was also the fastest of the entire field of 9,740 old and yearlings. In 2022 he repeated this success with BE20-3020958, which was the fastest old pigeon in all of Belgium from Tulle against 9,763 old birds.

Marc Denolf once again proved to have a patent on excellent pigeons for the one-day long distance, a category in which he always excels.

The whole Herbots team congratulates Marc with this brilliant performance.
