"After 3 years of participation in the Winners Cup USA race series, I can say that I trust Bill Hatcher with my pigeons. Win or lose, I can always say that I know my birds will be well cared for. This, along with Bill's honest and open communication in regard to all questions and concerns that I ever have, is why I endorse Bills's races. Trust is everything in this type of event."

Bill, "thankyou again for 2 outstanding race series. Unfortunately I came away empty handed but had a blast and was glued to the computer through both the Cup and ABC races. You were dealt a tough hand with regards to the weather this year. I applaud your decisions and was glad to see a tough series as you have always promised the North Course would provide. Testing the pigeons on tough days can only help to improve my breeding loft. You stay in contact with us from the time we ship you birds, through the summer months, and right up to the final race. As a breeder, I cannot tell you how much that is appreciated. Next year I will toughen my team up a bit and be back ready to go at it again!! " Carey Tilson, North Carolina

Hello everyone; We are Gene and Gail King with Timberline Speed Loft in Decatur Texas. We would like to say a few words about Winnerscup USA one loft race. We have attended every race from the beginning. When the birds arrive home, whether it be the 200 or 400 mile race; the birds look like they just had "a walk in the park". No drooping wings, not staggering on the landing board or falling over on their sides. We have been to other one loft races and have seen all of the above. You just know that Bill has the birds in good condition and makes sure they have water prior to release. " We feel Winnerscup is a great one loft race and is truly the Gold Standard of races."
Sincerely, Gene and Gail King, Texas

I recommend Winners Cup races because I know that Bill will give 100% when it comes to the care and condition of the birds. The loft is not over crowded and my birds have an equal chance there. I like his constant communications and e-mail giving me all the info I need on my birds. Marian Taloi, Oregon

"I've entered Bill's races the past 3 years, no major success just yet. It takes a special bird to win on this course and each year we dial it in closer. If you want transparency, live clocking, and the excitement of watching the drops from your laptop; I highly recommend the Cup

"I've entered birds in other Futurity Races, but I'm impressed by the care and handling of the birds by Bill Hatcher in the Winnerscup. I've visited Bill's Lofts on race day to watch the birds arrive. The Winnerscup races are the only one loft races I enter each year. My birds have been fortunate to place and win in the 2 years that I have entered. I've seen great handling, preparation and care given. I have put my total trust in Bill's handling of my birds. Thanks Bill!! I will see you next year.."

"I first met Bill around 1977 while competing in the Bay Cities Combine in California. Over the years, I have grown to appreciate what a unique individual he really is. I can't think of another individual in the sport that I would trust more with the care and development of my birds. I have been out to his one loft race 2 out of the 3 years he has put it on and witnessed the extraordinary effort and growth he has put forth. I personally think he puts on one of the best races out there."

I want to tell you about the job you've been doing at
Winners cup. First off, with you hauling the birds to
the race and caring for the birds like they were your
own. You made the right decision holding the races
due to extreme heat this year. I will recommend
Winners cup to anyone next year seeking to enter
one loft races. Look for me to be there as well!!
Thanks for taking care of the birds.......

Dear Bill: Just wanted to congratulate you on a really excellent Winners Cup Series
this year. You picked a course that really required keeping up with the weather
and winds and you did that very well which I know took extra effort on your part
and it is appreciated very much. The email updates were sent on a regular basis
and the web site remains the example for other races when it comes to inventory,
training tosses and racing results. The birds were returned promptly and were
shinning with plenty of weight after a long season. Finally, I personally enjoyed
your sense of humor throughout the entire process. Having run a one loft race I
know that it is not a cake walk but you kept your cool and your humor and were
always accessible. Usually once the race is over silence follows on the web site.
However, I like the fact that once the Winners Cup series is over your are still at it
full force with first class pictures and plenty of information on the winners.
The Winners Cup remains a breath of fresh air compared to many one loft races
and I plan to be back next year and look forward to the innovations for added
prizes. Sign me up!!

I would like to share a personal statement of
gratitude to Mr. Bill Hatcher for being a man of
integrity and running a world class one loft pigeon
race. The Winners Cup USA Race. After reading the
Racing Pigeon Digest article in the Dec. 15th issue
pertaining to one loft racing. I am happy to say that
The Winnerscupusa race meets all of the authors
criteria and more. Excellent feed, housing and
training but the greatest thing is the communication
with the participants. The utmost care is given to
your potential champions. I highly recommend this
race. It is growing and getting better every year. I'm
convinced that Bill will make it one of America's
premiere races.
Sincerely, Benny Curtis/ Derrrell Fowler

To Bill Hatcher /Staff& all Fanciers & Friends
Happy New Year to all !! Just wanted to let you know we will be
sending out teams again for One loft Races in 2012. As many know
we took the 2011 Season Off and also only flew 1-2 races in 2009. In
2010 we Raced a Handful of Races and Won over 17,000+ points, We
topped it off with a Beautiful trip to S. Africa.
This year 2012 CERTAIN LOFT USA is Back! We will be entering
the " Winners Cup Races Series" Once again. Bill Hatcher and Staff
@ the Winner Cup Races Since their 1st year in 2007 have always
been leaders in Health , ventilation and a 1st Class Operation. This
is paramount when it comes to getting a true test on race day. The
Winners Cup staff have also been ahead of the curve when it comes
to supplements for our race birds
and innovative ideas that are today standard features in many one
loft races. Hatcher Spares NO expense when it comes to the Health
and Welfare of the Birds, Health is Job one at the Winners Cup.
I highly recommend and endorse this race, if its your 1st year or your
10th year flying one loft races, try this Premier one loft Race located
in Oklahoma. At "The Winner Cup USA Race Series" you will
always
be kept abreast of what happening with your birds and what's the
game plan for release during weather issues.
Most entrants say, Bill gives them more than they need when it
comes to information. When it comes to One loft races some races
have good intentions but don't have the Support or staff to make the
race a 1st class operation , as you know many races come and many
go. We believe that only the Best One Loft races can survive in
difficult economic times and Winners Cup is one that is here to stay.
This race supplies all you'll need, I even hear theirs great potential of
a joint release on the 400 with another local One loft race that will
bring even more excitement.
Once Again to all the Fanciers out their, have a great Season and
Hope to See You at the Winner Cup Race series!
PS: I'll be sending a few from my "Jessy Marie Cruiser" Family, so
better send your best. This Koopman Family was awesome in S.
Africa in 2010 (see our web site to see what your up against :-)..........

I was looking for a good honest one loft race, so I called my good friend Bob McCarty in Texas. Bobs my mentor and so I take what he says to heart. He said "Winnerscup is as good as it gets as far as integrity and care of the birds".
My experience this year at Winnerscup was above and beyond my expectations. I was updated as if I was there at the races in person. Because of Bob, I gave it a chance. Now, I believe it for myself. Dan Romanski, Erie Pa.
