Theres a reason why many top trainers and breeders have been on this and other forums and no longer contribute. From memory PAW got into an argument or was abused and stopped posting. I remember the same with a top trainer as well.
Good luck with Starline Express and your litters :)

906 posts and 900 would have been self-congratulatory or self-aggrandising. Someone's got huge tickets on himself and it ain't me brother.

The truly great breeders, are too busy, planning matings, whelping pups, Vaccinating pups, rearing pups, taking pups to the vet, nurturing pups, breaking in pups, pre-training pups and doing all the hard work that is the grass roots greyhound breeding. They speak loudest with their actions and results. They aren't dog bums like us, talking BS on Greyhound data forums, telling the world how good they are. Why do you think Paul Wheeler (RIP) didn't waste his time with this forum. It was a misuse of his valuable time. He was far too busy being hands on with his dogs and look at his incredible results.

Agree with a lot of that, even had more than one person tell me why do I bother with this site. Just enjoy your dogs. Simply I like talking dogs and breeding.
Its a shame, because weve had some serious breeders and trainers on this site, but all have been had a crack at and decided to walk away. PAW was on both Global Greyhounds and here on Data, but got sick of the petty attacks on himself.

Youve researched Double Twist. If you care so much, go research his 100s of litters and let us all know the results - EXTERNAL LINK
Im an outcross fan, so gave you Indy Fido Australian Cup finalist to Droopys Jet (Ire), his sister Indy Matilda is super fast. Looking forward to seeing her pups race. Fernando Bale not up to the dams Droopys Jet (Ire) litter.

Hey Mate, Somthing else to consider... Double Twist (Wheres Pedro x Tifi) her Dam is Tifi who also produced Solar Pak (Mogambo x Tifi) therefore making her half sister to Double Twist i guess.
As you may known Solar Pak had 4 litters. Fernando Bale, Collision, Barcia Bale and now Kincloch Brae.
The collision litter produced 8 pups all very impressive dogs including Feral Franky and Good Odds Harada.
The fernando litter produced 10 pups. Again all great dogs but none that went to stud (I belive) in this litter.
Barcia litter only 3 with no great performers and the kinloch litter had 7 which are only new to the track with just a couple handy dogs.
I guess in essance this shows 4 different sires, 2 arguably the best and most commercial in our current market. Food for thought
