2010 Sires

Polo
QRNS
(Hawk x Cheyenne)

Extremely long patterned, Polo is well balanced and handles with a lot of muscle and proportion of hindsaddle. We kept back a lot of his daughters.  They are complete; broody, well patterned and stylish

 9003- Polo daughter that was very competitive last summer for Danielle Holmes.

BLT
RRNN
(Wild Card x Trowbridge 98-236)

Powerful.  That’s the first word that comes to mind.  BLT is one of the biggest topped, stoutest made rams we’ve used at ISU.  Purchased from Bott Club Lambs this past summer, he is heavy boned, wide and square, nicely balanced and has passed on a lot of power to his lambs. 

Reference Sires

Deep Purple
RRNN
(Bleedin’ Purple X Shell II)

DP was a tremendous sire for us. He is deceased, but his genetics continue to be a big part of our ewe flock. He has the same loin and hip shape as his father but he's flatter shouldered and taller fronted.

Deep Purple semen for sale

The Big Deal
QRNN
(Real Deal X McIlrath 0150)

Another proven sire for us, BD offers the same rib shape and look as his father, but with more natural thickness and a bigger top.

Thank you to Beattie Farms- MI for purchasing BD.

ISU 7116
RR
(Big Deal x BMOC)

Unfortunately, we only had one lamb crop from him. He sired an outstanding set of females which we are adding to our ewe flock. You appreciate his style and substance. He is extended, upstanding and very attractive on the profile while being powerful and naturally expressive.

Conflict
RRNS
(Opportunity Knocks x Bleedin’ Purple)

We kept a lot of his daughters.  Conflict added neater front ends, cleaner patterns and attractiveness to our already stout made ewes.
