I'd look at High Voltage at RW Genetics. He's got the thug look and power, but the structural integrity and sow power of the RW herd.

Ruthless at McCoys is pretty good have two nice liters on ground out of him. Ronnie D at DeOrnellas Show Pigs, has a good one also that is cheaper. Have three due to him in March (Thug Lord)

We have 2 Bone Thug sons that we are extremely excited about and after watching them grow into mature boars feel they are as good as anything we have seen out there.
The first one we call Chosen Thug, he's Bone Thug x Turbo, stress negative, bred by Jesse Heimer and purchased on the Chosen One's sale. Chosen is perfect build, design, cool fronted, tall shouldered and ideal frame for making modern showpigs and gilts while still having the width, muscle and shape it takes to win big.
The other one we call, Bear Thug, he is Bone Thug x Bear x Modern Marvel, Stress Pending but should be negative, Bred by Stramel Showpigs. This guy has monster foot and bone, barrel ribbed, deep bodied, extremely good structure, flex and up on his pasterns.

We have pictures of Chosen Thug on our Facebook page and hoping to get some of Bear Thug this week.

You can view RW Genetics Bone Thug Son Line Up at the link below. Rick is calling them his 3 Phase Power Cross bred Line Up (High Voltage, Transformer, and Power Plant). Last weekend we took a mature picture of Tranformer and posted it on the website. He is really a stout featured boar with big even toes and incredible rib shape and the impeccable hip that Rick selects for.

Ghetto Cowboy at Laird's has been getting ot done. Believe he sired the reserve at Fort Worth and Champion at another big show. I have some out of him that will show in March. They are really nice and feet and legs are as close to perfect as you can get.We have been happy with the whole litter.

Outlier at Lairds is a FREAK! Wait til this summer and you will understand! I think he will make the biggest splash this season.

I also REALLY like the Ante Up. Will definitely be using him this fall. And his babies in the first online sale they had are absolutely killer.
