Pin Oak Club Lambs consists of myself, Mike and my wife Karon, we live in Shady Grove, 40 miles directly north of the Little Rock, Ar. We just lambed out our 15th crop of Arkansas Bred Lambs and have had an active role in the sheep council along with Arkansas State Fair for over a decade. Our involvement in the sheep council and state fair started like most others, with our own showman. We raised two girls that were heavily involved in the AJSC, 4H, FFA and were fierce competitors in the ring. They showed it all from cattle to broilers, goats to rabbits, but their favorites were their sheep. Our two girls, Miranda and Morgan were responsible for the start of Pin Oak Club Lambs, there were always ewes that "we couldn't part with." From that hand full of ewes, the girls kept we have now expanded to breeding over 70 blackface ewes. In addition to our blackface flock, we are in the process of adding a few Dorset’s to the herd.

Over our years with the AJSC and the ASF we have become acquainted with hundreds of showmen and are now starting to see some of those same showmen return with their own children. Not only are we a breeder but we have a passion for showing livestock and we love being a small part of our kids’ lives. There are few things more fulfilling than watching kids grow up into well rounded successful adults.

We have had several lambs that have competed for the top slots at Arkansas State Fair, AYE and a few that went on nationally that placed respectively in their classes.

We have been blessed to be able to partner rams with breeders from Indiana and Texas. These partnerships have allowed us to increase our genetic pool and give us access to their knowledge. In the last few years, we have added Drop the Mic, Bullseye, Bravo, Joint Custody, Almost Famous, Midnight Oil and Top Gun genetics to our flock. By introducing those genetics into our ewe base, we have increased overall width, muscle shape, foot size, and added the shag needed for the ring today all while keeping that 4D- Large glass tight hide.

We look forward to another great year with our Pin Oak kids and encourage you to come out and take a look at this years crop
