Weight in lbs (as of 06.19.15): 64
Description:: We really like what we see in these 262 litter females! They are sired by Fortune and out of a tremendous Bear daughter, combining two of the most successful sires out there! They are stout featured, with good look and they balance up right end to end! We really appreciate the extension they offer for the kind of feature and stoutness they have!!!

Weight in lbs (as of 09.04.15): 70
Description:: We really like the design and look of these 293's!!! They are sired by the ever growing in fame Visionary and out of a tremendous Bear daughter!!! None of these Visionary barrows will just overpower you in terms of muscle and power today, but they have the true structure and leg size to be right where you want to be come show day!!! They will mature with more and more power as they grow and they already have the design and show ring look to dominate!!! If you're okay with feeding a later maturing kind that may not win every jackpot yet will have what it takes come show weight... These Visionary x Bear barrows should certainly be on the short list!!!

Sire of Dam: Bear
Weight in lbs (as of 03.23.15): 65
Description:: These Capone barrows should get your attention if you're truly serious about winning at the highest levels!!! All four of these barrows balance up with shape, look, and bone work that it takes to win shows!!! These barrows have a stoutness yet attractiveness about them that make them great prospects!!! You can study each of them as individual and decide which ones fit your needs the best, but you really can't go wrong with a 292 litter barrows!!! They are so correct, so basic, yet still do so many of the extras that you will need on show day to win a Purple Banner!!!

GREAT THINGS CAN HAPPEN!!! We just think the ones like him will have you IN THE HUNT more times than not!!! He's super tall shouldered, shapely topped, and heavy boned WITH LOOK!!! This one is just a pretty salty show barrow prospect!!!

Dam's Ear Notch: 277-3
Sire of Dam: Creature
Weight in lbs (as of 03.23.15): 58
Description:: The way we see it BOTH OF THESE 297'S ARE KEEPER GILTS!!! And honestly we may end up pulling them out of the sale to keep after all. It's not 100% all about just how impressive or how good one is when it comes to us retaining females! Honestly, we sell some of the very most impressive show gilts in every group. Maybe because we have littermates or a lot of 1/2 sisters and/or we can reproduce the pedigree easily. These 297 would be really neat goods to keep and breed off of for us just because they are so different and unique about their true muscle shape and expression, while still having so much look and show appeal in a very extended package!!! It's really tough to get them put together like these belted females! These offer so much good in one package!!! You just can't replace these kind with something else!!! They will make BIG TIME WINNING SHOW GILTS IN OUR OPINION!!!

Weight in lbs (as of 10.01.14): 46
Description:: Just a slightly later maturing version here guys!!! This barrow is made of the right stuff to feed and get really good before it's all said and done!!! He's stout featured and super attractive! He's got really good top shape and reads with all the markers of a barrow that is going to mature into a powerhouse!!! We really do not think you can wrong by feeding a 241!!! These are just big time show barrows!

Sire of Dam: Creature
Weight in lbs (as of 04.17.15): 55
Description:: YOU HAVE TO STOP AND STUDY THESE BEAR 84 BARROWS!!! These littermate barrows are just put together so well in terms of offering incredible bone and sqaureness in an attractive elevated kind of skeleton!!! We have the way these 45's read to us at this stage of the game!!! They are ideal in terms of the power and shape they have working in them, to be dead on to just get on feed and feed to the show!!! You can study the photos and decide for yourself but these are the kind that we love to feed!!! They skeletal structure and design is RIGHT!!! They are extremely heavy boned barrows that are as square as you can make them!!! All reasons why the Bear 84 barrows have been so dominant in the show ring!!!

Weight in lbs (as of 11.13.14): 40
Description:: It might be easy to overlook this blue masked 299 because he is still raw made and he is later in his maturity than others might be. But, we still think he can get SPECIAL before it's all said and done! If you're planning to jackpot one a bunch and do that deal then, you should look for another barrow. This barrow will not be the type and kind nor have the early readiness to show to be that kind of barrow. But, if you're looking way down the road at a mid March to early April kind of show then you NEED THIS BARROW ON YOUR LIST!!! He is going to get really good! He's built right, with heavy structure, and great look and design!!! Once this barrow turns the corner and maturity starts working in his direction... LOOK OUT!!!

Description:: Really another impressive Bear 84 x Bear female to pay close attention to!!! She's got a boldness about her but she's also square with great show appeal!!! This one exemplifies the term balance!!! We find that for some reason people tend to shy away from the ones we describe as ultra balanced and complete and they like to hear more extreme stuff... But, if you can't appreciate this one for exactly what she is then OH WELL, SOMEONE ELSE WILL!!! And they will have a tremendous crossbred female on their hands!!
