Description

The first cria for us from Majestic's A Man Among Men, and what a little stunner. We call this cria Big Man, and his fleece is already noticeably dense, lots of character with spaghetti bundled architecture and wow does he have staple length. Look at that luster too. He is our first Man baby, but also our first combination of Hemingway's Bogart on the bottom and A Man Among Men on the top. Dam Sahara is out of a foundation Renaissance Ridge dam purchase known for her density and staple length. Dam's Sire, Hemingway's Bogart provided the fineness and the other fineness character traits along with excellent EPDs. Man Among Men enhances this boys density, provide fiber character, luster, handle, crimp and staple length. Bogart is known for his longevity of fineness and uniformity.

Man on a Mission should turn out to be a very promising Herdsire with the best of old world genetics and new world genetics together in one package. This cria's phenotype is ideal. Straight legs, straight back, equal neck to truck ratio and good substance of bone. His bite is idea, as is his head.

At just over 6 months he had a respectable placing at both the National's and Futurity. What got him in the lineup going head to head with the large farms was by far his staple length. All judges he showed under commented his placements were due to his amazing staple length. Amanda VandenBosch words were "He really grows staple length" when handing out the ribbons.

Check out his well rounded EPD picture, what you would like in every trait. Wow. This is truly a well rounded EPD portrait given that nearly all trait values are below 15% ranking compared to the national herd. His SL EPD is not bad either. The proof is in the fiber, and picture one says it all.
