Lining up great sows has always been a priority for us when trying to make good breeding stock or show barrows. Take The Lead takes that concept to a whole new level. His dam is a Buckle Up × 82-8 Never Before × 2-6 Rule 21. The 82 litter Never Before sows are extremely potent in their generating ability. 82-5 is the maternal granddam of Heavy Hitter, who continues to show up on the bottom side of high-selling pigs and winners at the biggest shows. 82-8 is the dam of Lead The Way! Take The Lead's sire happens to be a Lead The Way son we sold to PBG in the summer of 2024. Take The Lead is an intensely linebred boar that we feel has all the modern bone and look while not sacrificing skeletal quality.
