BREEDING PHILOSOPHY
Our breeding program’s objective is to produce an elite animal, from an efficient maternal weight hind using the latest technology and best genetics available.
We use world leading venison, velvet and antler genetics combined with performance measures such as ultrasound scanning, CT scanning, DEERSelect, progeny testing and DNA testing to achieve our consistent, best in class results.
Fastidious recording and tracking of key trait data ensures we mate the right hind to the suitable stag to achieve precise breeding goals. During the selection process, we are constantly reviewing breed values, bloodlines and performance to date.
