PLAY HARD is our $55,000 purchase from Team Sloan Livestock at the 2024 King’s #1!! He represents everything we were looking for in a blue boar addition, but regardless of color—this one gets us fired up!! PLAY HARD comes from Team Sloan—a firm famous for making the kind that stand out and win big!! PLAY HARD is sired by the very popular Kanoe boar at Upperhand and back on a Backdrop sow. PLAY HARD comes from an awesome litter of pigs, including a mate sister that was the 2025 Mississippi Youth Expo Champion Light Cross Gilt and won the lightest class of blues at Breeder’s Cup!

PLAY HARD offers an undeniable look from the side being tall shouldered, flat backed, and perfect in his proportions. He comes at you broad and leaves you with that same view—with genuine width and squareness from the top of his hip all the way to the ground!! He explodes out of his blade with real muscle shape that he carries all the way back to a monster hip. PLAY HARD takes it to the next level with his ability to get out and drive with so much comfort and range of motion! He is an “extras” boar that still remains so fundamental and basic in his build, which allows him to be a boar that we think can fit so many different kinds of females with a high degree of success! Get in here and get ready for some fun with PLAY HARD!!
