HOLD ON’S LITTERMATE SISTER SHOWN BY PAIGE SCHULTE JUST NAMED 2024 THE EXPOSITION 4TH OVERALL (CHAMPION D3 AND 3RD OVERALL DARK CROSS GILT)!

HOLD ON is our online weanling purchase from S Squared Showpigs that we are absolutely fired up on! He comes from an incredible litter including HANG TIGHT here at PBG, the 2024 The Exposition 4th Overall Crossbred Gilt (3rd Overall Dark (Champion D3), along with multiple other mates winning so far this show season!

.

HOLD ON is sired by Buckle Up—without a doubt one of the most popular and successful young sires we have ever had here at PBG. Buckle Up's ability to make hogs with so many extras that are still built to sustain the long drives in the big rings to the top of majors have made him a truly unique sire!! HOLD

ON’S mother is a Quite Frankly x Timber sow that S Squared purchased from Tres Amigos. That Timber grandmother is the sow that Tres purchased from Cole Genetics that is becoming a staple in the showpig industry for making winners at the highest levels of competition including Ashley Hagen's '23 California State Fair Grand Overall Gilt and '23 American Royal Grand Overall Gilt!! HOLD ON’S genetic package gives us extreme amounts of confidence in his ability to generate winners and make true progress!

.

HOLD ON displays an unreal look from the side being so elevated up front, extended through his front end with an awesome shape to his skull and a strong jawline. He blends back with moderate length of body, while still being very long in his hip design which allows him to plant and drive with elite comfort and range of motion! He is very shapely and muscular up high and carries this dimension down to a big rib cage and full center body cavity. He is impressive as he drives at you and goes away with power while remaining so square to the ground and functional in his angles. This is the kind that can make the ones that can stand out in the toughest crowds! HOLD ON!!
