Roger what is Rubens pedigree?

Thanks

OwenI suppose the pedigree would have been a good thing to add now wouldn't it. LOL!

I will also add a pic of him last year at age 2 in fall. And a pic of his father Shadow Man when he was age 2 also.

Ruben won 1st place for 2 year olds at the Whitetails Of Wisconsin banquet last April.

Well look at what came across my radar today. This is a beautiful and big, deep pedigreed one year old buck. I have already committed to semen from him and look forward to using it21704:image21705:image21706:image.

Decided to post a couple pics of one of the boys. Big body so don't assume the rack is small.

These yearlings are owned by Haymarsh Whitetails. They are the only two yearling sons of Ruben in 2015.

Glenn Dice of Dice Farms sent me a video and I added it to my Independence Ranch farm page. He has a fantastic looking 2 year old this year. Go to the Facebook page to view video of this great buck. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Independence-Ranch/454135171337441

These bucks are not high scoring fellas, however at age 2 they have some nice looks to them. These are all Downdraft sons.

Nice Roger. I have a group of two year olds out of a double bred Big Guy son (Two Big) that look real similar. These kinds of bucks will be in high demand over the coming years.

I agree Josh. Too trashy is not going to last. You need a frame that is balanced. Extras for score is good but not crazy stuff.

Went to visit Adam Rowland over at Bluff Country Whitetails. He has some fantastic bucks growing there. Here is video of one of them he calls Total Package. He has some other great two year olds as well that go back to Updraft. Pretty amazing bucks that will make him real money.

Take a look at the video I posted on my Facebook page. Enjoy!

Thanks for posting the video Roger! Really enjoyed having you visit and as always it was great talking deer! I will try to post some pics of the 1 and 2 year olds. And yes, couldn't be more happy with my Updraft girls, they have been rock solid!

Hey Adam, thanks for sharing these pics! They are some great bucks you are raising over there. Worth the trip to visit with you and see them! Thanks!

You are seriously going to want to see the bucks I posted video of today on my page. Dirk and Jane Stolz at Tamarack deer and elk farm have some incredible whitetail bucks and elk growing. I am proud to say most of their big Whitetails have come from my stock. Check out the 3 videos posted. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Independence-Ranch/454135171337441
