Awe, don't be hate'n. Maybe you'll get it right this year!

As far as my prognostication for 2013:

After seeing how well many of the Hill Billy Bone sons seem to produce, I'm thinking Monumental will make a big splash this coming year.

Also, there is a little known boar in Southern Oklahoma called Skip A Rope. He's a Blue Butted Drop Shot son that really impressed me with his 1st litters this fall. He's probably not going to generate the volume of herd boars due to him being a light cross, but he could be a barrow producing machine.

Are they selling semen on Skip A Rope?

Yes, Doug Mitchell owns the boar. Here's his number if you want to call about semen availability. 580-490-6417. He sent me a picture of the boar so could promote the litters I will have in March out of him. Unfortunately, I'm out of town and can't add it to this post.

The boar's pedigree is Drop Shot x Recovery.

There was a $1,500+ blue roan barrow sold at Duncan this fall along with several other high dollar barrows in Oklahoma.

If you google skip a rope there is a couple videos of him on you tube. Not 100 percent sure its him but its a blue deal in the video, I'm assuming it is.

Yep, that's him at a young age. He has matured nicely.

What are they getting on Skip a Rope?

I think he is $100/dose
