FALL BOAR BOOK
Thank you for taking a look at our 2019 Fall Boar Book This will be our 16th season in the semen business and we are grateful every day to be able to live out our dreams. We appreciate every purchase of semen, breeding stock, & showpig prospects as we know the significant financial investment involved but also the commitment of time that is put into each project. We understand that every order we send out is the start of a dream and we do our very best to do our part to make that dream come true. We are extremely grateful to our customers for having faith in our sires and putting them in their best females; to the exhibitors of PBG-sired projects for doing the hard work it takes to present them at their very best; and to all of our boar suppliers over the years who have trusted us to care for and get their sires used on elite females. It takes all 3 of those working together to make it all work and we greatly appreciate it!!! We will continue to work to earn your business by providing the most elite genetics possible and by treating each customer a little better than we would expect to be treated. We have worked extremely hard and traveled thousands of miles to find the absolute elite of the elite sires to offer to our customers this past spring & summer. Our goal has always been to have an elite set of sires in every breed that can fit our customers needs. To be successful at the highest levels it takes focus not only in the ring but in the entire process from the breeder’s selection of sires to breed to the correct females, the exhibitors, families and advisers countless hours and miles spent searching for the best prospects, through hundreds of ours spent in the barn feeding, washing, cleaning & walking. Every step must be done with extreme focus by everyone involved to attain the goal of a huge banner. However, the ultimate positive outcome of this effort and drive to be the best is the translation of this same approach to other phases of life. Hard work and dedication are the secret to success in any endeavor and we can think of no better place to teach those life skills than in the barn!!!

ANCHORMAN

*NEW*
Teen Spirit x Best Man x Teen Spirit’s Dam Bred By & Owned with Wintex Farms Stress: Negative
Simply put we believe ANCHORMAN can have as big an impact on the showpig world as any boar we have put in stud! We had heard for several months that Anchorman was an absolutely special individual from those that had been to Wintex Farms to see him! As we headed out to Texas, we knew that we were going to try to do whatever we could to try to purchase Anchorman and bring him home to Premium Blend! After seeing him, we were all in! After hearing Will talk with conviction that they felt Anchorman was the “heir apparent” to Best Man and Lock It Up, and especially after seeing his early litters, we knew it was not going to be easy to get the WTX crew to sell him! We truly cannot thank Jay, Will and the entire crew at Wintex Farms enough for the opportunity to purchase Anchorman. We truly believe he has a chance to make the same type of impact that Best Man and Lock It Up had on the industry! Anchorman combines freakish traits from every angle you analyze him, while doing so in a very sound, functional package! He is so unique in his length of neck and elevation up front, while offering immense stoutness of skull. Anchorman is absolutely enormous in his bone and foot size. Visitors have been amazed and at the sheer size of his legs, while still remaining very clean in his joints! His rib shape is unreal and he overwhelms with power and mass from every angle. We could go on for a very long time about just how special we think Anchorman is-we invite you to come view him in person. He is one truly incredible boar that has a chance to be the next Wintex legend!!

*NEW*
Square Deal x Visionary x Bear Bred by Steve Cobb & Family Stress: Negative
ABSOLUTELY UNREAL!!! We had heard from several sources that Cobbs had a boar that they had nicknamed “Bad Cat” that was off-the-charts good and we knew we needed to make the trip to check him out. Aaron describes this boar “as unique as I’ve ever seen”! We made the trip to Cobb’s in 2014 and when a boar later known as VISIONARY came walking out of the barn, we knew we were looking at one that had the opportunity to have a tremendous impact on showpig history. We truly believe Checkmate has that same type of ability! Incredible and very Visionary-like in his look, structure, extension, showhog presence and attitude but what we believe makes him truly futuristic is how blown apart and square he is coming and going and his absolutely massive top and upper rib shape. We think Checkmate represents a very futuristic sire! An unbelievable boar with a very unique and exciting pedigree! It’s hard to put into words just how good we think this one is and we invite you to come and check him out! He has wowed those that have seen him so far. Checkmate was in the “ALREADY NAMED HIM / NOT FOR SALE” pen and it took lots of negotiations and lots of cash to get it done. We are grateful and thrilled that Cobbs let this one follow in the footsteps of the many tremendous Cobb sires to Premium Blend!!! The final move we have been wanting to make - CHECKMATE! We have head tremendous reports on Checkmate babies with consistent reports of very large consistently high quality litters and cool chromed-up color patterns.

Dirty Secret x Dirty Secret’s Sister (Bachelor Party) Bred by Lackey Livestock
Stress: Negative
OH MY!! Better buckle up on this one! One of the most popular young boars we have ever put on stud! With the unreal demand and early success of Secret Society, we were immediately in contact with Jason about a return trip to try to buy another one of that caliber! We can say with extreme confidence that we have found one EVEN BETTER!! The siring career of Dirty Secret is nothing short of legendary, so when Jason told us he had a special young boar that was Dirty Secret x Dirty Secret’s sister, we couldn’t wait to make the trip to see him! Thanks again to the crew at Lackey Livestock for the opportunity to purchase Family Ties. We have extreme confidence in his ability to follow in his sire’s footsteps and be an absolute legend in the showpig industry! We have always found that it was difficult to adequately describe the truly special ones because they just have that “IT FACTOR” that separates them from the pack. Family Ties has about as much “IT” as anything we have ever seen. He offers such a unique combination of stoutness, extreme power and mass with a flawless skeletal build and a freakish look through his head and neck! He drives at you busted open and bold with a high head carriage that ties high into his blade. He explodes out of the backside of his blade, offering overwhelming shape and spread. He is a short backed boar, while still offering really good elevation and look and is also very long and level in the design to his hip which allows him to plant and drive with supreme athleticism and range of motion. When viewing Family Ties, the sheer density and proportions that made Dirty Secret famous are on full display. Family Ties is a truly special individual--HERE WE GO!!

Curtain Call x No Mercy x Bone Collector Bred By: Weisinger Farms Stress Negative
GORILLA is the boar that Nate thinks is easily the best one that Weisinger Farms has ever produced!!! We have been going to Weisinger Farms for several years and every year the elite individuals continue to impress on every visit! We have been blessed and fortunate to have purchased boars throughout the years that have done an incredible job for us siring champions at all levels and making hogs better! With that said, we can say with a great deal of confidence that Gorilla is the best one we have ever purchased from Weisingers and one of our favorites of all of the cross boars we have to offer! Gorilla is so unique in his build and design with an unreal look! As you study him from the side, he offers a striking profile with elevation and freakish extension from his blade forward! With that, he is still set back properly in his shoulder blade and offers curvature to his forearm with a big front foot! He is bold and opened up through his chest floor and robust in his center body! Gorilla offers extreme shape and expression with width and power all the way through! Most importantly, he plants and reaches off his rear leg and practically fills his tracks as he drives with unmatched comfort and range of motion! An absolutely special boar that is one of our favorites and we believe has a very, very bright future!!

NEVER BEFORE
$500 List / $300 Overrun / $200 Last Call Dirty Secret x Red 7 Bred by Bobell Farms Stress: Negative
Never Before have we seen one like this!! Truly an AMAZING animal that is built to leave a legacy! Never Before was one of the pair of littermate boars we purchased for $170,000 in a private auction purchase from Bobell Farms. Never Before is a Dirty Secret and is out of a Red 7 female that is a littermate to Red Alert. We saw the videos of these boars and immediately knew we needed to head over and see them as soon as possible. After viewing them, we got back in the truck and agreed that we were going to do whatever it took to bring them to PBG. We believe that Never Before has the opportunity to be an absolute LEGEND in the showpig industry! Never Before is simply a stand out creature from every angle. He combines extreme traits never before thought possible and does so in a correct, functional package. It is hard to imagine a boar that can be this extreme in his ability to be incredibly heavy boned, big footed, and stout, while still being so elevated, attractive and unreal in his overall skeletal build and design. Never Before is absolutely on fire siring as many if not more winners than any boar we have had on stud. Most impressive to us is that he has worked across numerous herds and absolutely stamps them with tremendous mass, look and structural correctness. Highlights so far this summer: California Supreme Overall Barrow & Reserve Overall FFA Barrow; Expo Champion Div 1 Cross Gilt, Expo Champion & $31,000 Top-Selling Boar; STC Reserve Champion Boar, Expo eleven 1st or 2nd Place Cross Barrows & Gilts and more Jackpot & County Fair Grand Overall Barrows and Gilts than any sire we have housed.

We immediately followed Shane back to his pen to see if there were any littermate boars. Shane told us there was one that he thought was very special, but he wasn’t sure if he would sell him.

We have always admired his offspring due to their overall stoutness, feature, and power, while maintaining an awesome look, build,and presence! We never dreamed we’d convince the crew at Wintex to sell us 71, but we are absolutely thrilled to have purchased him, making Premium Blend his new home! When Will dropped 71 out of his pen on the tour at WTX, we were incredibly impressed! He runs uphill, yet is moderate in his length of body with extreme rib and body shape! He plants and drives on an enormous hind leg. What we were most impressed with is the extreme comfort and agility he still demonstrates as a mature boar carrying all this power and mass. He stamps his offspring with his extreme traits, yet consistently makes them very skeletally correct! We could go on for awhile describing his positive attributes, but his track record speaks for itself-he flat out gets it done!! Simply put, 71 has proven to be an absolutely dominant force and we think he is just getting started!!

V40 x V40’s Full Sister (Vendetta) Bred by Lindner Showpigs Stress: Negative
We have been on a serious hunt for an elite Exotic boar that would be the perfect genetic and phenotypic match for Dirty Secret daughters. We had seen several V40 hogs we really liked and had won at the highest levels so when we heard Luke Lindner had a very special V40 son, this search immediately led us to Lindner Showpigs and resulted in the purchase of this truly ELITE individual! The V40’s have had a tremendous run this winter and after seeing the incredible amount of success Luke had with V40 x Vendetta gilts and barrows throughout the major show season, we are even more excited that we were able to purchase this boar!! Additionally, on the trip to Lindner’s, Luke showed us through the sows and young gilts that he had built his program around. We were absolutely blown away with the sow herd Luke has put together. After seeing this incredible depth of quality and genetic horsepower of females standing at the foundation of him, we are even more confident in No Mas’s ability to be an absolutely DOMINATING sire!! No Mas is simply put a barrow sire supreme and is unlike any sire ever housed at PBG. He is an absolute monster in his back shape and spread up high! He is so bold and robust in his center body with awesome turn to his upper rib with incredible body mass. No Mas is so unique in his look with a stout, masculine skull that is still very sharp and attractive with a tight ear set. He is so impressive in the length and design of his hip, with a hind leg that functions with supreme comfort. This should allow his offspring to keep driving comfortably while the competition tightens up! When a barrow that looks like No Mas comes out of the gate and drives right at the judge, you can bet you will be heading straight back to the pen and driving for the big banners! We greatly appreciate Luke letting us pry this one away!!! An incredible specimen with a very unique pedigree! This one is special! Lots of litters on the ground and tons of great reports on the No Mas babies!

When he walked out of the Cobb's boar barn the first thing that hit us was his tree-trunk back legs that truly look fake. Then you see his hip which is the longest and best hip and makes him one of the most athletic boars we have seen out of Collector or Thug. Then you see his barrel rib and absolutely massive flank. Then the real topper is one of the most uniquely-powerful but extended head/necks you can imagine. There is not a whole lot left to say about what Visionary has accomplished to date and we think he is as relevant today as he was the day we purchased him. Visionary continues to produce off-spring that can win at the Majors as he sired the Reserve Yorkshire Barrow @ Houston and the 3rd Overall Gilt @ Georgia Nationals. Even more impressive to us is the job his daughters are doing in the crate.

HIGH ROLLER! This big time Poland boar is a littermate to the 2019 The Exposition Champion & Reserve Poland barrows, and the 2019 Team Purebred Junior National Champion Poland & Reserve Overall Breeds barrow!! Vegas Showpigs has become a name synonymous with elite Poland stock over the last several years! Kelly has built an incredible sow herd that has produced a tremendous amount of winners at the biggest stages all across the country! As we made our travels this summer, stopping at Vegas Showpigs was a visit we were really looking forward to! It definitely lived up to what we were hoping to see and we were thrilled to purchase two elite Poland boars!! High Roller is one of those boars that offers a breeder versatility in terms of types and kinds he can be used on. He is flawless in his skeletal build and design being tall fronted, level in his build and very attractive in the look he gives you from the side! As he comes and goes, he does so in a very square, correct, and proportionate package. The angles to his shoulder blade and design of his hip and hind leg are ideal and allow him to be very comfortable and correct on the move! A very complete Poland boar that is so fault free, yet offers the extras it takes to win big banners!! High Roller is out of a tremendously deep litter and is bred to win big shows with Poland royalty for several generations making up his genetic foundation! We’ve got a lot of confidence that he can make Polands better!!

SITTING BULL
$150 List / $85 Overrun / $75 Last Call Rain Dance x Radar Bred by Kaufman Farms Stress Carrier EN:2-1 Reg # 49459001 Sitting Bull is our 2018 WPX $20,000 Reserve & Top Selling Boar from Kaufman Farms! Sitting Bull is sired by the highly successful Rain Dance boar we purchased at WPX last year that has had an incredible run so far this summer! Sitting Bull’s littermate gilt was a multiple Top 5 Overall Gilt this summer for the Long family, including being named Grand Overall Gilt on the Iowa Circuit! Sitting Bull is a Poland boar that is built to make a dramatic influence on the breed! He reminds us so much of our Perfect Storm boar we housed that is arguably one of the most influential Poland boars in recent times! We believe that Sitting Bull has the ability to make that same type of impact! He is heavy boned, big footed, and stout in his overall makeup. He still offers great look and extension with great shape and expression. He is opened up from the base of his chest and carries this width and power to the ground and he is equally impressive as he drives away! In 2019 Sitting Bull’s summer was highlighted by TP Nats 5th Overall Breeds Barrow & 5th Overall Poland Barrow, as well as the Expo Champion & Top-selling Boar.

Up In Smoke x Loud Mouth
Bred By: CKL SPOTS Owned with: Down Family, Mays, Behrman, Yates & Smith, and M&N Showpigs Stress Negative EN: 54-1 Reg #168767001
We are absolutely pumped to bring Hollywood Blvd. to Premium Blend!! This is a Spot boar that we have been hearing about for several months now and are thrilled to have purchased him to offer to our customers!! Hollywood Blvd. was bred by CKL Spots, a firm known for making Spotted stock that are changers within the breed! Hollywood Blvd. was shown at 2019 SWTC in Belton where he was the 2nd Top Selling Spot boar. Talking with Bobby Listen, Hollywood Blvd. had gotten sick before Belton and had lost a lot of his bloom leading up to the show. A great set of spot breeders teamed up to purchase him to turn loose on their sow herds! From the videos only weeks following Belton, it was obvious that Hollywood Blvd. had gone home, went back to feed and had turned into a BEAST! Thanks to all those involved with this incredible boar for the opportunity to purchase Hollywood Blvd.! We believe Hollywood Blvd. is one of the most unique Spot boars to surface in a long time! He is an outlier in the breed in his elevation, look, and extension he offers from his blade forward. He is big and square in his chest floor with tremendous spread and power up high! He is an extremely heavy boned, big footed boar that is very secure and comfortable when set in motion. Simply put, this one gets us as excited as any Spot boar we have ever had here at Premium Blend. Breed him to your best with absolute confidence and get ready for the big stage-Hollywood Blvd.!!

No Words x Road Trip 4-3 Bred By: Jennings Showpigs Stress Carrier EN: 18-3
We were on a search for a Spotted boar that offered some unique, far reaching breeding pieces to work back on Momentum and Full Throttle daughters and believe we have found the perfect option in LAST WORD!! The Jennings Showpigs crew in Oklahoma has been doing big things in the spotted breed, most notably Hunter McKinnon’s 2018 WPX Grand Overall Breeds Barrow! Last Word is sired by the extremely popular No Words boar at TKO that is off to a fast start and looks to have a very promising career as a sire! When Brady sent us the video of this boar, we were very impressed and added the stop along the way on our trip Oklahoma and Texas to see him and seal the deal. Last Words is a power hog that is burly and stout in his skeleton. He offers true shape and expression with a deep groove running down his back. He is a bold chested, big bladed boar that maintains power and width from the front of his skeleton to his hip. Last Word still motors off his hind leg with authority and plants and drives very square and correct. Last Word is a Spot boar to breed to those basic, good built sows that need more “extras” in terms of look, width and muscle shape! We believe Last Word has a chance to make some big time noise in the Spotted breed!
