The same Creature daughter that produced that winning barrow is the mother of these 219's!!! On Target just sired the Reserve, 3rd overall, and 4th overall at the the World Pork Expo!!! I think it's safe to say the potential for greatness exist within these 219 litter barrows!!! They are not all identical, yet with that said these barrows do cover the basics very well across the board without presenting holes!!! They have the kind of extension and elevation in combination with shape and structure it takes to GO PLAY at the highest levels!!! |

You can take your pick here and truly plan to go have a chance to win with any one of these guys!!! Red Sky has done a wonder job for us as an outcross sire to use back on our sow base! These barrows have the look and attractive color pattern that he brings to the table, with the stoutness of feature and heaviness of structure you would expect out of a Creature daughter!!! They're not all exactly alike in every aspect, yet they are a very consistent group that all fit the same basic type and kind!!! You should be able to find a barrow OR TWO in this litter that suit you for sure!!! |

 EN: 79-4 XBBreed/Sex: Crossbred Barrow Sire: Bear 274 Dam's Ear Notch: 9-11 Sire of Dam: On Time Description:: If you're in search of a later July to early August aged barrow that has the mass and bone and look to be competitive at the highest level, this 79-4 is a MUST!!! He's so bold in his center and yet squares square to the ground and stays within his skeleton! He is rugged as they come with a super stout skull and jaw yet he stays attractive up front because of his extension and clean made look! We like this one a lot! NOTE: Vet will remove dewclaws off of the inside of both front feet. It should heal up just fine with a problem. Yet, we do guarantee a full recovery or will give 100% refund. So, we would like to have the buyer leave him here at least 3-4 weeks to recover and make sure it all heals up right. If it's all good we can deliver him after our early November Sale. The buyer doesn't even need to pay until that point in which we can be sure that's it's healed properly. Then, if even past that point later in the feeding season, it presents any sort of problem we would give them a 100% refund. Thanks for your patience and understanding on this issue. |

They are barrows that appear to be ones that should have a wide window of when they can be shown and how long they can stay 12:00!!! Just the natural back shape, rib shape, and center body of these guys should allow them to stay right while you grow them slow for a pretty good while! We certainly got Pinnacle matted right here in this match up with this particular Visionary daughter! |

She's big enough in her frame and has that extension to where she can grow and pack on the power and still balance at heavy weights! If you want one to balance up right at 270+ they have to have a certain degree of extension! We love the extension and scale of this female while still having heavy structure and stoutness!!! |

 EN: 13-3 XGBreed/Sex: Crossbred Gilt Sire: Bear 84 Dam's Ear Notch: 22-7 Sire of Dam: Bear Weight in lbs (as of 09.04.15): 40 Description:: BEAR 84 X BEAR 22'S LITTERMATE!!! THIS IS BIG TIME SPECIAL GOOD WE BELIEVE!!! Even though these gilts are later about their maturity and they are still just babies... We read these double bred Bears to only just get more and more massive and powerful as they age, grow, and mature!!! Study the true shape, the true structure, the true dimension, and the ultra cool extension of these Bear 84's!!! As we've said in the past... You have to be patient enough with the Bear 84's! They will not be jackpot ready as early, it takes them more time to reach the ideal conditioning... But, the success of the Bear 84's in UNDENIABLE!!! Especially, the Bear 84 x Bear pedigree success!!! Grand at Denver! Grand at Perry, GA! Reserve Grand at LSU! Champion Hampshire at Houston! And the list just keeps growing and growing!!! We have put a large number of B84 X Bear females back into the keeper pens as well!!! |

 EN: 273-2 XBBreed/Sex: Crossbred Barrow Sire: Visionary Dam's Ear Notch: 280-1 Sire of Dam: Maverick Weight in lbs (as of 11.01.15): 57 Description:: This white Visionary barrow looks like he'll be one to run hard in the Yorkshire deal! Unless he starts to freckle up between now and then this one appears to be all white and he's a STOUT DUDE!!! He's incredibly heavy boned, he's busted open in his center body, and he's the ideal length of body with a great kind of look still from his blade forward!!! We like how this one squares up and handles his hip and rear leg with comfort and authority!!! We are really high on this barrow prospect!!! |

Just extremely heavy structured barrows that are square built and correct off both ends! They are the kind that seem to work over and over!!! It feels like sometimes we under promote these kind, just because maybe they aren't super freaky anywhere, but if you want to break them down top to bottom and front to rear you will see how awesomely complete and well balanced they are!!! The little young sow that is their mother could be a truly special generator for us here the next few years!!! Great Trio Here!!! |

They might balance up with as much good and show appeal from the side as any!!! They nearly run uphill and are good pasterned. We see both of these barrows as being ELITE FEEDING HOGS!!! These are the kind that will make even an average feeder look like a pro!!! They are just built so right with the correct kind of skeletons to last and be comfortable on the move!!! |

They read like they are going to feed out of this world good!!! They are square built and designed up well with the right kind of shape and body and bone work in great balance with each other!!! These are the kind of barrows that will sometimes slip thru the cracks and get overlooked slightly due to the numbers of extremely high quality pigs we offer... THAT END UP WINNING IT ALL SOMEWHERE JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE BUILT RIGHT, THEY ARE SQUARE, THEY ARE SOUND, AND THEIR MATURITY PATTERN IS IDEAL!!! |

I WOULD TRY MY BEST TO HAVE 279-2 IN MY BARN!!! He's just an absolutely SPECIAL ONE in our judgement!!! This guy is so square throughout, and has the kind of bone and stoutness it takes to win big ones, yet this On Target barrow is still so cool in terms of the look he has! He's one that has an enormous back and rib laid in him and yet he's still so right in his spine and the comfort to his skeleton!!! WE HONESTLY EXPECT THIS BARROW TO SHOW UP AT A SHOW LATER THIS SUMMER WITH WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN THE BANNER!!! |

THERE'S NO LIMIT TO HOW GOOD THINGS CAN GET!!! These 12 litter barrows are tremendous in terms of combining power and look and stoutness!!! We love the square build and heaviness of structure we see in these Visionary barrows! Yet, when they hit the ring with their head coming high out of their blade and the tallness at the point of shoulder they will definitely have the show appeal it takes to GET IT DONE at the highest levels!!! |

 EN: 22-6 XBBreed/Sex: Crossbred Barrow Sire: On Target Dam's Ear Notch: 86-2 Sire of Dam: Bear Weight in lbs (as of 02.08.16): 125 Description:: These older barrows were too small and really just runts out of their litters at the time we sold some of them in mid November, but as these rascals have had more time they have continued to mature and quiet frankly they read like they can get good enough to win shows!!! If you're still in the hunt for a prospect big enough to make weight and compete at like a May type show date or if you like to feed them older and manage weight for a show like Expo... These barrows are ones you need to watch closely!!! *22-6 is the meaty, massive, powerful barrow in the group! 25-10 is probably the most extended one with the least amount of hold in him, he's ideal to just push hard all they way to May and be heavy weight!!! 27-5 is one with a lot of look and show appeal, square designed and balanced, he's one we can see holding onto a while and then hitting him hard at the end game to power him up one degree! 27-10 is without a doubt the barrow in this set of older barrows that reads to be OUR KIND!!! He's so well balanced with the right kind of design, heaviness of structure, and squareness throughout! 31-13 another barrow that we read as one to turn loose and push on! He should be 12:00 and finish out near heavy weight by a May show date! |
