One of the best long distance flyers in Germany in modern times is Heinz Seegmuller, so much so that in 2005 he has won 1st International Biarritz with a blue cheq hen of his highly cultivated family of racers. Prior to the latest International win Seegmuller won Internationals from Dax, Marseille, Pau and Perpignan; which also included the addition of International hens from Pau. A truly great international flyer!

Our subject has been associated with pigeons since being quite young. However upon his interest in the distance races and his introduction to the strain of Havenith of Belgium success came Heinz way to consolidate his utter commitment to the sport at the longer events. This was about 1967/68 and based upon patience and good management Seegmuller crept up the ladder of the European elite based upon birds from Willy Linz.

Other successes are as follows:
8th National Section 3 St- Vincent 1995.
2nd National Narbonne 1996.
18th National Limoges 1996.
1st Ace Pigeon Long Distance KBDB 1996.
1st National Section 3 St- Vincent 1996.
3rd National Brive 1997.
13th National Narbonne 1997.
2th National Dax 1997.
1st National Dax 1997.
2nd National Perpignan 1997.
1st Ace Pigeon Long Distance KBDB 1997 and 1st World Champion 1997.
1st World Champion Marathon Versele- Laga 1998.
6th National Narbonne 1998.
2nd National St Vincent 1999.
1st Olympiad Pigeon Holland Long Distance Blackpool 1999.

The above speaks volumes and confirms if required my opinion of this great sportsman from the land of the Rhine. Heinz Seegmuller deserves all that he has achieved in the sport for through total widowhood his Havenith based family are reaping the international world of European pigeon racing. May he continue to do so for Heinz puts in so much time and effort to the sport. In conclusion, congratulations upon your recent International success.
