Supersonic was a tall (LA
50), powerful buck, with that difficult to achieve combination
of masculine scale with impressive style. He excelled in
correctness of front end with tight shoulders, sharp withers,
wide chest floor, and straight - truly straight - front legs.
His feet were strong, with tight toes and deep heels. He moved
in a strong, fluid, effortless "horse-like" gait. With
an "E" rating in head, rear legs, feet, back and rump,
and a "V" rating in shoulder assembly and front legs,
one can agree that he was a truly extraordinary buck.
Sonic has proven to
increase milk production significantly, with daughters averaging
over 10 lbs. at first freshening. Daughters are also longer,
taller, and more level than their dams. He has shown to improve
leg set and foot structure.
He has won 3 Reserve
Grand Championships, 14 Best of Breeds, and 8 Best Buck in Show.
He was the 1996 Alpine All-American 2-year-old and the 1997
Alpine All-American 3-year-old buck. His daughters took 1st
place Junior Get at the 2001 National Show.
We will be using him
again in the future on unrelated does, through A.I.
