The references we now are going to present you, are all from German pigeon fanciers. Their pigeons were simply the best in 2008.
1.
The first fancier is Mr. Stephan Katzenellenbogen(Rogätz). In 2008 he became in the “Gouden Duif” competion: 1st champion on the middle distance races and 2nd over all champion. The “Gouden Duif” is a very exclusive and difficult competition. Mr. Katzenellenbogen won these championships, partly because of his Vercammen pigeons. But that’s not all. In 2008 he had one of the very best pigeons in Germany. His blue cock, DV09861-07-189, became 3rd national Ace-pigeon of Germany. His results will follow later on. The father of this super racing cock is a 100% Vercammen pigeon(through Mr. Schmelzer). The father descends out of a son of “Late Panter”(B88-6700945). “Late Panter” is on his turn a direct son to basic pigeon “Panter”(B86-6056506).
The racing team of Mr. Katzenellenbogen performed great in 2008

The second fancier is Mr. Meier(Rahden). The top championship titles of Mr. Meier in 2008:
1st National champion of Germany.
1st in the prestigious "Gouden Duif" competition
One of the birds that was responsible for these fantastic successes was the hen DV09711-06-429. She has got Vercammen blood in her veins. Her best results(no doubles mentioned!):
2° Theessen 3,945 p.
9° Burg-Ost 772 p.
11° Fienerode 4,317 p.
12° Brandenburg 5,167 p.
12° Slupca 2,391 p.
14° Braunschweig 5,450 p.
19° Gross Kienitz 3,850 p.
So top prizes again a very high number of pigeons! No wonder this hen was ranked in 2007 AND 2008 as national ace-pigeon of Germany!

Her mother is "Zuchtperle"(DV09711-01-253). She was herself 1st Ace-pigeon with the old birds! She comes out of a daughter of "Yasmine"(B90-6244831)! “Yasmine” was in the early Nineties one of the very best birds in Belgium on the middle distance races. She was no less than 5 times 1st Ace-pigeon! She won 31 prizes on 31 races, 8x 1°,… Especially with hard weather she was unbeatable. A Belgian newspaper once described her as “best Belgian middle distance hen”.
3.
The last ones we are going to present is the combination Hemmers and son. They are since many years at the top of German pigeon sport. They have an excellent 100% Vercammen breeding hen. In fact, this is their basic pigeon Number 1! They call her “Bugno Täubin”(B94-6522272). This hen is a grandchild of “Panter”(B86-6056506) and also a grandchild of “Yasmine”(B90-6244831). “Bugno Täubin” is a.o. mother to “Amoroso”(DV08073-00-1065). “Amoroso” became in 2001 1st ace-pigeon on the middle distance. Some top results of “Amoroso”(no double results):
3° against 1,079 p.
6° against 2,498 p.
6° against 1,596 p.
8° against 2,630 p.

Another child of “Bugno Täubin” won a first prize against a high number of birds and became 6th provincial ace-pigeon. “Bungo Täubin” is grandmother to 3 top birds. The first one is “Regio Superstar”(DV08043-07-518). In the year 2008 he was really unbeatable. He was 3 times 1st ace-pigeon! The top results of “Regio Superstar”(again no doubles results are mentioned):
1° against 2,047 p.
1° against 336 p.
3° against 1,513 p.
6° against 1,467 p.
6° against 1,151 p.
7° against 684 p.
8° against 6,899 p.
9° against 5,245 p.
The other 2 top grandchildren are “Tinga”(DV08043-06-917) and “Zidan”(DV08043-07-553).
Top bird "Amoroso". His dark colour betrays the Vercammen blood
We congratulate all these fanciers with their super results!
