BUILDING CHAMPIONS

JIM MCCOY CONSULTING

The mission statement remains the same. With 29 years of experience selling semen, assisting customers, and helping to line up impactful breeding decisions, this takes it to the next level of having more options to offer.

For those breeders and show pig enthusiasts that either do not have the time to physically see the boars that they are considering using or simply need a different perspective evaluating structure, maturity, look and design, this is for you! The possibility of making better choices in your matings could pay great dividends in a single pig within a litter, with more salability, uniformity, ultimately better sales, and customer results that keep them coming back.

I look forward to doing more of what I have done my entire lifeworking with the people that I enjoy visiting with and being around, and if I can help in any small way to make things better in this business, I am excited to do so.

After just one year of being involved in this totally new concept, it has been overwhelming to find out the need that so many show pig producers have had for this type of service. Just in the first few months of consulting, I had the opportunity to view over 550 sows in herds across the country and many texts and videos viewed with great interaction in helping make progressive, informed breeding decisions.

No herd is too small or large to take advantage of this. The boars compiled in this group of studs are among the very best of the best available. With the show pig sale side of the consulting that we began offering in January of 2023, we can now offer assistance on both ends of the spectrum, breeding to selling. Feel free to call and visit, I would love to meet with you!

Jim is familiar with the boar lineups at the following studs listed below. Contact Jim today to setup a herd visit to discuss your mating decisions!

EASILY, ONE OF THE BIGGEST ACQUISITIONS WE HAVE EVER MADE!

• One that has been in the works for a while, and we cannot be any more appreciative to Brett and the Beyers Farms crew for finally letting him call Crossroads home! The one that they had a plan for from the beginning and never looked back! Maybe as dominant of a sire for Beyers as any on a limited number of sows, and now he’s available to the public! The impact that 76 created in Sibley, IL is shining through in the littermate sisters and full sibs to this powerhouse!

• The generating power of this sire has been unmatched as his first crop has resulted in these key wins: 3rd Overall Barrow & Grand Overall Land of Lincoln 2022 IL State Fair, 5th Overall Gilt 2022 The Exposition, 3rd Overall Gilt & Champion Duroc and Reserve Champion Duroc Gilt 2022 NBS Jr Classic, 4th Overall Gilt 2022 WI State Fair Badger Classic, Reserve Champion Duroc Gilt 2022 GA National Fair, and numerous jackpot champions!

• Phenotypically impressive specimen that is the perfect blend of density and mobility! A rugged made one that is extra heavy boned and big footed! One that is short backed, round ribbed, and big chested! Square built off both ends with that exceptionally comfortable build that Beyers is known for! The right kind of look and levelness from the side to make those winning gilts and barrows like he has already been doing! His name speaks for itself when it comes to making elite reds one so it’s quite simple…. SET THE CURVE!

tiger tail

Exciting private treaty purchase prior to Springfield!

• He offers a shot of outcross blood for the Transformer & Rub It In lines that have dominated the last couple summers!

• The Anchor dam was the Champion 4-H Hereford Gilt at the Iowa State Fair in 2021 and her littermate brother was the Champion 4-H Barrow at the Iowa State Fair & 3rd Overall Hereford Barrow at The Recovery as well!

Love the huge, round rib cage that sits under his broad, shapely back! Giant feet and large limbs that make him a mover for the breed in those areas! One that should also generate good color markings on a consistent basis due to outcome from him lineage! Wrap up the competition with TIGER TAIL!

Awesome kind of Hereford boar that we are pumped to now have at Crossroads after his initial stint at Upperhand!

• The litter he comes from not only includes that 3rd Overall OYE gilt, it also consisted of the Champion & Reserve Herf Gilts at 2022 Breeders’ Cup. Those 2 females, along with one other, dominated the Ohio Winter Circuit as well!

• A litter that Corya will tell you is the best litter they’ve had to date and his 3 sisters are ones they’re building from! To echo the way Travis described him, he is one that has that unmatched look and pattern from the side! A naturally high headed one that is tall fronted and level! A square built one that uses his hip and hind leg in the appropriate manner!
