buck. He was large boned, tall (LA 50), yet had so much style
and sense of self. His feet and legs were strong and correct.
His chest was deep and wide with correct placement of front
legs. His front end assembly was tight and smooth with ample
brisket extension. this very desirable trait was passed on to
his get
Tartan has within his immediate
pedigree some of the most influential French Alpines of the
1980s-1990s: GCH++*B Redwood Hills Sunshine Reverie, ++*B
Serendipity's Bruiser, ++*B Nixon's Joi Huckster, ++*B Raintree
BF Skypilot, ++*B Nixon's Ranchman, and ++*B New Era's Kane. The
positive traits of these sires are ongoing and currently seen in
the pedigrees of recent show winners at the national level.
His daughters are tall,
smoothly blended, well angulated, beautifully uddered with
special attention to foreudder extension, teat size and
delineation. Rear udder height averages at 38.
We are happy to bring our
big Bold Tartan back into the breeding program and will be using
him through AI in the future, on the Strategy
daughters.
