On lease from Redwood Hill Farm, Freelance is an outstanding buck. At just four years of age, he has sired the 2nd and 3rd place Three Year-Old at the 2007 ADGA National Show and has two daughters in the Top Ten. The linear appraisal average of his six young daughters was 88.3, at least two are permanent champions. We have evaluated over a dozen daughters in milk; they are consistently elegant and correct, with high, wide and well-extended mammary systems with excellent teat size and placement. They have especially strong feet and legs and good bone, without sacrificing dairiness. We are very pleased with our Kuma offspring from Freelance, including the lovely Xacta. We have used Freelance on the majority of our herd this year.

From our strongest doe line, Radical Act is a dairy, long, smoothly blended buck with great width between the hocks and in the escutcheon. We are especially pleased with his long-bone pattern. His sire, Sioux, also comes from a very strong line of structurally correct animals. Because he is so related to our herd, his use has been limited; however, he is proving to be an outstanding buck, with ALL his daughters showing improved general appearance over their dams, with especially good toplines, pasterns and width throughout. He consistently throws high, wide, rear udders and excellent teat size and placement. His daughters include our lovely Swing Dancer and Tambourine.

Ember is tall and dairy, with a smoothly blended front end and excellent feet and legs.  His first daughters in our herd and at Redwood Hill dairy are freshening with outstanding udders, with especially strong rear attachments, excellent medials and correct teat size and placement. They are also correct in general appearance, with correct rear leg angulation, short, strong pasterns and long, level toplines.  Most remind us of Ember’s beautiful dam, Eclipse.  Ember is the sire of our beautiful Sine; he also sired the 1st place Four Year-Old and 3rd place Three Year-Old at the 2005 National Show.
