Heimer Hampshires | 2022 Showcase The Influence

61-4 KINGPIN X DIRTY GOOD (143-10) X ANTE UP (143-12) She sold in the 2021 BTB Sale as Lot 201, the lead off open gilt. We offered 50% interest, no possession or the opportunity to double down and own 100%. Excerpts from her footnotes in the catalog: • We will argue that her upbringing at the slat barn is far more beneficial than any show ring accolades • She defines what ‘next in line’ looks like for an elite, game changing female relative to the path her sisters have paved.

THE REST OF THE STORY: Robbie Phillips Showpigs & Peter Smith bought her and after several days of thinking, talking and discussing, they ultimately elected to double down and purchase 100% of 61-4 for $44,000. They were patient and bred her to Tricked Out for a July litter. After the dust settled, they sold 7 males for a total of $126,000, including a pair for $60,000 & $30,000 respectively at Major League Pig Sale. Even better, they are wisely holding onto the gilts. Congratulations to Robbie & Peter on their success this fall and best wishes as they continue their quest to make 61-4 famous!
