Rodman is an extremely impressive and powerful boar that combines excellent design, stout structure and lean-muscular composition into a ultra sound functional package
A three dimensional individual, he is long bodied and level made yet excells in natural width and depth of body
He is wide chested, bold shouldered and has excellent spring of rib
Heavy structured, Rodman is big bladed, heavy boned and big footed with even well spread toes
He also expresses extra shape in his top and carries his massive muscle back into a thick rump and ham without restricting his flexability or fluid movement
Rodman has excellent underline quality and spacing
With the exception of one shot of Alexander on the top side of the pedigree, the Buster Brown, Sweed and Roto Man genetics in Rodman's pedigree are an outcross to most maternal Landrace
Alexander 157-3, the sire of Rodman, has excellent EPDs and Indexes of 0.3 NBA (top 15%), LWT 3.08 (top 25%), MLI 126.6 (top 10%), SPI 112.1 (top 15%), Days -3.53 (top 9%) and TSI 134.7 (top 10%)
The paternal Grandsire, Alexander 39-1, is one of highest ranking boars in the breed ranking 1st in EPDs NBA (0.9), MLI (141.6) and SPI (130.4)
Rodman's dam is one of the best females at Waldos and has averaged 11.2 NBA, 10 weaned and 158 lb 21-day litterweight in 5 parities and has a herdsman maternal EBV of 124.9
In conclusion, Rodman is a high performance, powerful , well balanced and eye appealing Landrace boar that can fit a broad spectrum of demand
Rodman's -8.4 EPD for feed per gain certainly will add value in a commercial operation
