It takes one with that wow factor to earn the honor of lot 1 in the Vegas Showcase Sale, and when the Brockman Family told me what they wanted to offer, I knew that we had what I needed to fill the void. “Cruel 95” is an absolute beast, and has been serving as a current member of the Brockman stud and semen has been going into some of the nation’s very best females. This “Cruel” son is out
Grand Overall California Mid State Fair
of the most distinguished and proven sow family at the Brockman ranch, going back to “30-5”, the sow that Carrie describes as the cornerstone of their entire operation. A Grand Barrow Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo
specimen and unique individual that can add pasture strength, presence, and build, to make the kind of baby pigs that will sell AND compete at the highest level. Cruel 95 has been a favorite of many, and certainly has been one that has seen extensive use in the herd. This genetic lineup has produced champions at virtually every Texas major, California, and some of the best of the Midwest, along with sires like “Feathered Indian” and “By Design”! This is a golden opportunity to purchase a young sire that will be leaving his mark within the industry, and be commanding the attention of the most devoted breeders when breeding time rolls around!

YORKSHIRE BOAR
When nick text me, he said we aren’t going to beat around the bush here, this one is an absolute hammer and we want to put him in the sale, if you’ll help us promote him. When he sent me the quick snapshot of this creature, I knew that they were swinging a big stick with this year’s consignment, and a boar of this magnitude demands the attention of the serious genetic suppliers and breeders. Backed by sows from two of the highest regarded Yorkshire programs in recent history, “75-5” goes back to “27-3”, the Grimm sow, on the bottom side of the pedigree. 27-3 went on to produce the Champion Yorkshire Gilt at OYE in 2017, and “Awestruck” Sire of 75-5
this gilt eventually went on to produce the “Buckle Up” boar that stood in stud and was used by many. On the top side of the pedigree, you’ll find “14-5” the Olson sow that we all know best as one of the cornerstone females in the Hofschulte program, as she has produced “Mega Man”, “Uproar”, “Awestruck”, the Reserve York gilt at the Southwest Regional, the Reserve Purebred Gilt at Tulsa in 2020, and The Grand Gilt at the 2020 NJSA Southwest Regional! No matter if you’re a Showpig enthusiast, or the most decorated Yorkshire breeder, you better have your homework done when this guy rolls around on sale day, there may not be a better opportunity to purchase an elite Yorkshire boar prospect!!
