• Top Gun’s influence on our program and the entire Hampshire breed cannot be overstated. We’re confident his sons and daughters will provide forward progress, for us and many others, they already have. • Farrowing Hampshire gilts is one of the tallest hurdles in this business and if it goes reasonably well, there’s usually clear sailing ahead. Such is the case for this young sow carrying her second litter. • Her mother was a direct daughter of The Game and after the dust settled, was a key contributor amongst the sows we acquired from Fecke. • Mated to ICE , the popular Lion Share son at Hi Point that saw heavy use by Hampshire breeders all over the country. This linebred mating will compound Top Gun with lots of upside potential.
• This impressive sow was bred by Hi Point Genetics and purchased from the Spittler Family after her show career in the summer of 2020. • Her first litter included a $4,500 barrow in the ‘21 Fall Showcase that was 3rd in the Heavy Hamps at ‘22 NWSS. • Currently have a boar on feed and retained all the gilts from her second litter sired by Tripod. • Missed her early but wanted to offer one due in February. There is always overwhelming interest for February purebred gilts that can start in the summer and show all fall, as evidenced by the competitive gilt shows at the American Royal, NAILE and others around the country over the last several weeks. Do not underestimate the value of this litter! • Mated to GHOST RIDER , the Top Gun son we used heavy this time, and is backed by 54-9, the timeless Homeboy sow that has been incredibly influential in our program.
