Dam: McLaughlin/Griffin 9523
Breeding Season: 2004, 2005, 2006,
2007, 2008

Mick has more than paid for himself and has played an important part in building
my flock's foundation of ewes with nice square hips and large tops. Nearly half of
my flock consists of his daughters which are early maturing, good mothers, milkers
and easy keepers. He is a very massive built ram with good structure. He
consistently stamps his lambs with a large loin, square hip and natural fleshing
ability. His 2007 ram lambs averaged a 3.266 loineye. Mick produced the 2007
Grand Champion market lamb at the Dawson County Fair, 2008 Grand
Champion Market lamb at the Rosebud/Treasure County Fair as well as many
other high placing lambs in the past years.

This ram has the most level dock I've seen on a sheep and has grown to be
quite a stout fellow. He posesses a nice square hip, good bone and structure.
When you get your hands on this rams top all you can say is wow. His
2007 ram lambs averaged a 3.147 loineye with good growth potential and eye
appeal.

This ram lamb was purchased from Linda Martiny of Washington and
comes from bloodlines that are big bodied, fast growing and have superior
carcass traits. Olaf is a heavy duty built ram and his first lamb crop
showed nice frame size, bone and growth rate. In August 2007 Olaf
scanned a 3.61 loineye as a ram lamb.

I figured my ventures to purchase stud rams for 2007 was over until I came across
this ram lamb. My sale partner of Mitchell's Milehigh brought him to our sale and
he immediately caught my eye. Why wouldn't he as he scanned a 3.41 loineye as a
ram lamb and weighed in a hefty 200 pounds by September , what a classy looking
ram. I am more than pleased with his first lamb crop. They are very balanced
lambs with nice frame size, bulk, bone, level tops and good rate of gain.

This ram lamb was purchased from Tom Slack of Indiana for my club lamb
program and produced an exceptional first lamb crop. His lambs are long,
tight fronted with nice square hips and handle well in their tops. He sired
the Reserve Grand Champion lamb at the Rosebud/Treasure County Fair.
