"Progress through Pedigree and Performance"

 

Make Shopping for Your Sheep (and Shepherd) Easy
So you (or someone on your gift-giving shopping list) have always wanted that set of ewes that were something special. Or maybe you wanted that ram that would bring instant attention to your flock and make anyone want to see what those lambs are like. Here is your chance!

We are offering units of two special rams now so that you can have a shot at proven genetics that will make those looking for wethers or breeding stock notice what you have. The names alone are lofty for the winners they have produced. The genetics are proven foundations for some of the hottest and most enduring programs in the show lamb industry.

"Trailboss" and "Kingpin" Semen
You might expect that a ram of the stature of either of these would cost you thousands for purchase (probably thousands of dollars to lease for a year) and potentially hundreds of dollars to purchase a single unit of semen.

Here is how this package deal works:

"Trailboss" (QRNN) units will be offered in packages of 25 straws for $250 per package - only $10 per straw. Once you have paid for the packages, the units will become your property at the Stillwater, Oklahoma storage facility. Whether you keep them on storage there before having them sent to your A.I. destination or have them shipped directly when purchased, you pay for all shipping and handling of the units once they are purchased.

"Kingpin" (RRNS) units will be offered in packages of 25 straws for $125 per package - only $5 per straw. Once you have paid for the packages, the units will become your property at the Stillwater, Oklahoma storage facility. Whether you keep them on storage there before having them sent to your A.I. destination or have them shipped directly when purchased, you pay for all shipping and handling of the units once they are purchased.

This is NOT an auction. These prices do not rise as they are bid on. This is a first-paid-first-served opportunity. But since these true stud rams are deceased, this is a limited opportunity. Once these units are sold, expect to pay a lot more to the new owners if you want to the opportunity to breed to these winning lines.

"Trailboss" and "Kingpin" Semen
This is the legendary "Trailboss" Johnson bred ram that has sired tremendous winners across the nation. Even greater is  the strength he showed siring sons and daughters that are the foundation for several leading programs today. The son of "Trailboss" pictured was the Reserve Champion FFA Suffolk at the American Royal. "Trailboss" has sired numerous stud rams and is in the pedigree of several of the top rams at Johnson's in Oklahoma. Look at "Final Answer", "Major League", 'Poison", "KOOL", "Marquis", "MVP", "JR", "RS", "Wildfire" and several others. "Trailboss" made tremendous females as well. The Reserve Champion Blackface Market Lamb at the 2007 Arizona State Fair we bred was out of a daughter of the legendary "Trailboss".  A past NAILE Reserve Champion was sired by a "Trailboss" son and out of a "Trailboss" daughter. Consider the record of "Trailboss" before his passing and think about a special opportunity to create a flock of "Trailboss" daughters or raising that special sire by using the semen we have available from this legendary ram. You can create an opportunity for yourself to place your program in a great position.

"Trailboss" sired the:
Grand Champion Tulsa State Fair
Champion Hamp Tulsa State Fair
Reserve Champion Suffolk Tulsa State Fair
Grand Champion Louisiana State Fair
Reserve Champion Suffolk American Royal

"Kingpin" was considered one of the premier wether makers by Bradley Johnson. Half brother to the "Trailboss" ram out of "Boss", "Kingpin" was known to produce those outstanding wethers that would show and handle well compared to the top competition. Study the outstanding wins this ram sired. The Grand Champion wether at the 1999 National Western pictured was one of his many winning sons. Consider using the semen from this great ram with high level wins to develop your winner next year. 

Winners sired by "Kingpin" include:
Champion Crossbred NAILE
Champion Suffolk Oklahoma Youth Expo
Reserve Grand Ohio State Fair
Grand Champion National Western Stock Show

2001 American Royal 
Reserve Champion Suffolk FFA

This is a "Trailboss" son.  Without a doubt, "Trailboss" genetics work directly in the ring and they will work in the pastures to create winners!

Complete sheep with great muscle and style.  Big tops, clean fronts and extension are the calling cards for "Trailboss".
