TOO EASY
QRNN - (DB 9210 - Big Easy x DB 30)

Seldom do you get the opportunity to watch one develop and continue to get better like Too Easy has.  This mating is the result of years of line breeding, - 30 is a 43 daughter bred back to Big Easy, who is a full brother to 43 (see DONORS page). This one combines the traditional attributes found here: rib shape, body shape, structural correctness, and foot size but he adds more frame size and extension to make this complete package even more interesting.  In 2010, with very limited usage, Too Easy was true to his name, and made things appear way Too Easy!

 


BIG EASY
QRNN - (Marcantel 23 x 40 (Cabaniss 492 x 172))
Full Brother to Marcantel 43
Bred by Bob and Ben Marcantel

This is quite possibly one of the more captivating and complete sheep we have ever seen.  You can study this guy loose or on the brace and you admire his ability to be so level, complete, and structurally perfect. His body shape is irreplaceable; his bone massive, but his best asset is the shape of his fore-rib, top and lower leg. His lambs have always been well received, but we are just starting to see the value in his 15+ daughters –
trust us, he has left quite a legacy.

Thanks to Bruce Achor and Wayne Snider for purchasing Big Easy!  We have retained breeding rights.


DIRECT HIT
RRNN - (Blueprint (Trademark x Patent) x
Derby (31 x 411))
Bred by McGolden Club Lambs
2005 Champion April Hampshire Ram
Midwest Stud Ram Sale

Don't be fooled - this has become a popular name, but there is only one original!  This proven sire of Champions has left his mark here.  The shallowness and massiveness of these sheep is unbelievable - and they make our best and most productive females. Seldom does one find a sire as consistent and predictable as Direct Hit.
Take a look or you'll wish you had!

We lost Direct Hit in the fall of 2010, but he will live on through his 15+ daughters and the 140 straws of semen we collected prior to his death.

 


JUNE BUG
QRNN - (Tiger x L3)
Bred by Lively Ranch

Words cannot explain the excitement and anticipation we have to start getting lambs out of this guy.  How many chances do you get to breed to a sire that has been so influential in changing a breed and developing Dorset show lambs as we know them today?  This buck, even as a six year old, is still massive hipped and huge topped.  He is extremely square made and built right on all four corners.  The list of winners at all levels out of Junebug is unquestionable, and we are very grateful to Randy Lively for allowing us to use this highly proven and accomplished stud!

STIMULUS
RRNN - (Gold Coin (Six Bits) x Six Bits)
Bred by Cabaniss Club Lambs

Given the tough economic times we are currently experiencing – aren’t we all in need of a Stimulus?  This 2 year old is simply one of the shapeliest, squarest made, most purely powerful sheep we have seen that is still shallow in his chest floor and flat in his outer blade.  We expect him to create a name for himself rather quickly and we encourage quick acceptance of this bipartisan Stimulus.


C.O.D.
RRNN (T.K.O. (C.E.O. Son) x Ms. Clinton (Kerr x Cabaniss))
Bred by J.B. and Becky Massey

We believe that breeders can put themselves in a position to limit their programs by strictly evaluating an individual attribute of a rams' phenotype - we didn't! This natural-colored ram that shouldn't have been! For the length and extension C.O.D. offers he throws twice the power and shallowness. His progeny's rib and body shape are as close to ideal as we have ever seen - really round with excellent spread, all while maintaining superior flatness through their outer shoulder and shallowness in their underline. These sheep are easy feeding, great handling and have proven they can win!


LIGHTS OUT
Sidwell 4008 x Sidwell 141 (Oklahoma State x Sidwell 606)
Bred by Casey Sidwell

This guy is one of the coolest looking dorset bucks we could find - and, he has a pedigree that packs a punch! Danger Zone amazes you with the way he is built skeletally. Flawless on the brace, or on the move, this sheep has a huge hip and amazing lower leg shape. He is really round ribbed, yet has a flatness in his shoulder to please any evaluator. Danger Zone proves it is possible to raise a white one that looks like a black!


81
Ed Martin x L3
Owned by Randy Lively

As we began our quest to raise competitive dorset sheep we wanted to find the best and most intriguing sheep we could to start with. This guy is the shallowest, biggest boned, levelest dorset buck we have seen to date. As we evaluated his 2008 lamb crop at Randy Lively's, it was apparent that we needed to use him. Those lambs were so consistent and cool in their look. Their top shape was hard and square, and they were all up headed and seamless on the move. We expect great things from this mating, look for dorset winners in a show ring near you in 2009!
Thanks again to Randy for allowing us to lease 81.


SIDE ACTION
RRNN - (81 x Junebug)
Bred by & Owned with Lively Ranch

This young April-born buck lamb combines a lot of what a good one should. Walking out, you admire him for his levelness and upheadedness, yet when you put your hands on him, he is big racked and ultra flat loined and measures well, with a dead-square, perfect hip. Side Action is out of a ewe lamb we purchased directly from Marcantel's last spring and she was so good, we had to buy her sister! If he had been older, we would have used him harder.
He is quite the stud -- we all need a little Side Action!


LADIES MAN
RRNN (LSU2 (Marcantel 23 x 40) x
Impact 298 (Little Penny))
Bred by Impact Hamps

In our quest to raise more prominent and prolific females, we sought to find a sheep that combined flawlessly; design, structure, and rib-shape with productivity and pedigree. This led us to the sheep we call Ladies' Man. He has proven to be a valuable asset leaving us with a great set of replacement females in 2006, along with a keeper buck lamb (Side Action). If you appreciate the kind that will grow and develop into foundation females, you need a Ladies' Man!


SECRET SERVICE
QRNN (Packen' Heat x Impact 97)
Bred by Impact Hamps

secret Service was our yearling stud ram purchase from Brian Reilly in 2003.
Secret Service was a super-structured, heavy-boned, yet still a very attractive sheep that advanced our program. Unfortunately, we never had the opportunity to fully utilize this stud ram since he met an untimely death before being afforded the opportunity to leave his mark.
