LUKE was brown with black trim and silver ears; wide and correct through out, coupled with a level topline and lots of dairy character. He has passed these excellent qualities on to his offspring. Several of his daughters have exceeded 2,000 pounds of milk which put him into the in the USDA Sire Summary.
His dam GCH POTF Lizzie 3*M FS90 VVEE was a very outstanding doe, very dairy and so well balanced. She had a very gentle nature, and won many Best in Show and Best Udder awards. She had Res. Best Udder at the 1982 National Show behind her half sister GCH POTF Mercy, who was the National Grand Champion and Best Udder. Lizzie placed 3rd in her class and was part of our 1st place Senior Get of Sire.
Luke died too young to have many natural offspring but his progeny goes on through AI. He has several Grand Champion daughters. Including CH POTF Lady Regina 92 EEEE who was the 1998 National Res. Grand Champion & Best Udder. Due to an injury enroute to the National Show in 1999 year, she had to take 5th place but won 1st Udder. She was 1st 6 year old and Res. Best Udder in 2000. She was Grand, BOB and Best Udder at State Fair of OK, 1997,98 & 99. Best In Show and Best Udder Louisiana State Fair 1998. Judges commented on her body capacity, excellent balance and her high, wide & smooth blended mammary, especially her excellent side attachments.
His daughter GCH Wingwood Farm Tamaulipas was Res. Grand at the 1999 National Show. She had 2nd Udder in her class, behind Regina. Another daughter is CH Dayspring Glory. A very lovely doe with super nice mammary. Bodies are sometimes not as long, however they are very well balanced. Udders are very consistent.
