Davy Tournelle from Rummen is a super colony in national races

In the 2023 season, Davy Tournelle again competed several times for a national victory in the heavy middle and long distance races. Davy's favorite flights that he really gets a kick out of. Of course we all know that winning a national victory is not easy, but Davy himself has had the opportunity to taste it several times and the hunger remains great. In 2023 he won 12 x TOP 9 Nationals, these are serious credentials that you can and should take home with you.

Below you will find an overview of the best National races of the 2023 season and also the young pigeons that were very popular, personally I think that the yearlings of 2024 in Rummen in Brabant could be very successful next year. 

We know the quality here and with the line of “Tiesto” and “Torres” Davy has been on a roll for several years.

“Tiësto” and “Torres” 

Let's go back in time for a moment, BE 05-2217970 “Tiësto” is the name. A beautiful cock that has already produced 7 National winners in the offspring and 2 x 1st National Ace Pigeon middle distance KBDB. We are now only talking about 1st place.

His son “Torres” BE 09-2020506 continues to do this in a great way, because his record is impressive and in the offspring he is also the main thread through this colony together with his father. Of course we find fewer and fewer grandchildren in the racing team, but rest assured, the subsequent generations do the same and it is a family of winners and national top racers.
