Dear friends,
on Wednesday, November 15, 2023, the year 2023 came to a definitive end. The last auction was held. Now we will calculate the auction shares and make delivery plans for the pigeons purchased. However, this activity is hampered by the poor payment morale of some buyers. The rules stated that the pigeons purchased must be paid for as soon as the auction stage is over. We spend a lot of time sending reminders. Sometimes we have to remind several times. The worst situation is in Poland. As of today (16.11) we have financially completed only five stages out of fourteen. That says it all.
We have already paid out 90% of the winnings. We encourage others to contact us and tell us how to handle the money. If you wish to cash them out, you must send us your BIC and IBAN number. We have no problem with payouts. If you want to transfer the money for 2024, then write to us as well. We will transfer the money.
We wish you a peaceful and enjoyable end of the year 2023. We hope to see you again in the next edition.

We have finished the sixth, final and therefore the last race of this season. How was it? I rate the 10th anniversary season as a very successful one. Very few OLR facilities in the world have six races in their basic programme, three of them on +300 km, +400 km and +500 km tracks.
Therefore, after completing such a demanding programme, the pigeons can be considered to be of high quality. However, only pigeons that are healthy, well cared for, with a regular regime and good quality feed can perform well. A lot of credit for all this goes to my daughter Bohdana, who lives with her husband right in the OLR Talent Quatro complex. She started every day with morning training. Always punctual and strict with the pigeons. The pigeons were healthy, trained very well, and the range from the races was good. The FCI final race Szigetvár 410 km was very successful. A nice experience for the breeders present. However, the biggest problem was the weather. We had a very promising start. By 11 August we had completed three of the six races. We even thought that the super final would be a week earlier than planned. But a heat wave came, up to 38°C in the south, and we didn't want to release the pigeons in that weather. We covered the time to the fourth race - September 2 Nyirad 305 km with three timed training sessions from a distance of about 70 km. As it turned out, it was a good decision.
The Super Final from the Croatian town of Vrpolje surprised us all with its course. I must admit that I expected a rather fast race. We arrived at the starting point at 00:15 on Wednesday. So the pigeons had enough rest until the morning. At the start it was clear, calm, 18°C. The present starter, Mr. Gordan Mioč, checked the seals, feeding and watering. Everything was in order and therefore he gave the command to start at 8:00 am. The pigeons flew immediately and without hesitation to the north. In the right direction. In Hungary, as far as Lake Balaton, there was a light wind blowing in different directions up to 4 km/h. Above Lake Balaton the wind started to increase up to 10 km and had a southerly direction. In Slovakia, near Bratislava, the wind increased to 15 km and the direction changed to southeast. The wind was southerly at the point of impact. The temperature rose to 25°C during the day. It was so called smoky in Croatia, but after about 100 km the sky cleared. Visibility was excellent, with beautiful white clouds in the sky. When the winning trio of pigeons flew at 14:25 hours with a speed of 1322 m/min, everything seemed ideal. However, it soon became clear that the final race would be very tough. You can see on the range sheet that it was a very tough super final. On the first day 84 pigeons arrived and the race was closed for competition calculation purposes on the second day at 11:30:03.95 with 213 pigeons arriving. The breeders rate the Super Final positively. The spectators present saw the arrival of the best pigeons. They did not come to Šternberk for nothing. Some were delighted, some were disappointed. But that's how it is in pigeon sport.

Very few FCI OLRs have in their programme courses over 300, 400 and 500 kilometres as the OLR Talent Quatro! All of the young pigeons mentioned above have managed just such a demanding programme.
Our team will now rest for a few days and immediately afterwards start the most enjoyable part. We will calculate the amount of the awards and contact our most successful participants immediately afterwards, as we do every year. At the same time we will start preparing the pigeon auction. So send us your pedigrees. Thank you.

Dear friends and supporters,
on Sunday, September 10, 2023, the fifth race of this season took place. The starting point was the Hungarian town of Szigetvár, 410 km away. The pigeons started at 8:20 am - they immediately took the right direction. It was clear, calm, 20° C. There was virtually no wind blowing across Hungary. In Slovakia, a south wind started to blow, fluctuating. However, the temperature was rising rapidly. In the shade it was 24° C, but in the sun it was very soon over 30° C. Hot!
The pigeons were giving it their all. The breeders present evaluated the competition very positively. The others, at home on the computers, also. The massive early morning return of the pigeons was particularly well appreciated. It was a sign of good health and good condition of the pigeons in OLR Talent Quatro.
This track counts towards the FCI championship. The regularity was supervised by the delegate from Serbia, Mr. Arpad Sudicky. At the starting point everything was checked by Mr. Józef Maul. Details you can see on facebook.
We would like to thank the Belgian company AIDI, who donated a gift package with their quality products to the winner of the race. We would also like to thank Mr. Pavel Senohrábek, who donated a package of delicious sausages from his factory to the first three pigeon owners present. This package was given to Mr. Martin Bouchal, Mr. Marek Skrbek and Mr. Jo Vos from far away Holland.
