HERDSIRES

HERDSIRES…Past, Present and Future

 Herdsires:

These bucks were used to produce most of our 2020 & 2021 kid crops…and we really like what they have produced! We’re looking forward to seeing how they continue to perform….time will tell how good these bucks really are!

WEB Blues Dominator

Dominator (shown below at 3 years old)  is the winner of the 2016 Maryland Buck Test, and we are privileged to be able use him extensively for our breeding program.  His sire is Blues Son and his dam is, in our opinion, one of the best Shogun daughters ever produced.  The 2016 buck test was one of the most difficult tests on record, and Dominator was never dewormed and out gained the other bucks on test.  Bred by John Weber of Weber farms, Dominator and his offspring will continue to improve our doe herd performance.   Our 2018 kid crop was one of our best crops yet, largely due to genetics from this buck.  Most of our 2020 kid crop was sired by Dominator.    pedigree

WEB Hoosier Hammer

WEB Hoosier Hammer

Hoosier Hammer, shown here as a yearling, is quickly becoming a favorite young herdsire here at Hoosier Hills.  A son of Titan’s Hammer out of a CGI Shogun daughter, he produces thick and fast growing kids that grade out well at market.  In 2020 he sired the #2, #8 and #17 ranked bucks(out of 127 bucks) in the ribeye area analysis portion of the West Virginia Buck Test.  These bucks also did well in the fecal egg count and averaged daily gain portion of the test, resulting in a consignment group with very consistent overall performance and resulting in a top consigner recognition.  We look forward to seeing how his daughters perform in our herd and watching his 2021 kids grow out.

 

 

 

WEB Hoosier Survivor

Hoosier Survivor, a son of CGI Ringo out of a daughter of Hammer’s Mountain, is aptly named as he survived the 2019 Langston Buck Test.  He did well at the test while many of his peers were lost from illlness and stress.  His overall very good performance at this buck test, along with his strong phenotype and background genetics has made us excited to use him and see how his kids perform…. stay tuned!

“WEB Jackhammer”has produced the majority our 2015 & 2016 kid crop.  He has been an outstanding addition to our herd, and adds to our list of herdsires with great performance tested genetics! His 2016 buckling, PBG Ten High, was a top ten buck in the very difficult Western Maryland Buck Test. Jackhammer is out of a doe named AFK Dumbo, who was sired by Titan’s Hammer and out of a strong and hardy doe, ECR P77.

Jackhammer has proven to be hardy and fast growing like his ancesters.  We have been pleased with the kids he has produced for us… adding growth, frame and muscle to his offspring.  pedigree
SPECIAL BREEDING FOR 2017…CGI Ringo!
Said to be one of the best Pango sons ever born, we are excited to be able to have used this special buck on a limited number of does in 2017.  Many thanks to John Weber, Weber Farms, for this opportunity.  We have some great looking kids on the ground out of Ringo, and are looking forward to seeing how they perform.
