His pedigree is rich in stud rams from Caskey, Taylor, Rikow and Kirlin over the past 20 years.  The dam lines trace back to foundation ewes selected in our program over the past 30 years.

Sired a really strong set of 2016 January ewe lambs at the farm, visitors have been attracted to the breed type, balance and soundness!

Will consign a top ewe lamb by this stud to the 2016 Midwest Sale!
