Stud Rams Over the years, our rams have been consistently selected based on visual appraisal, depth of pedigree, and with our ewe base always in mind. This year all of our ewes were bred to Tie, a Total Blast grandson out of Slack x Wattonville ewe from MSB Suffolks in Pennsylvania.         Reference Sires As we hope you can tell by our web site, we give equal importance to both our ewe flock and our stud rams. Therefore, our selection of bucks has focused both on making wethers and developing females that become productive members of our flock. Some of our best rams have left their legacy through their daughters. Past wether sires include bloodlines from Sickels, Slack, Ott, McGolden, Hindman, and Ellerbrock. Although many of our bucks at first look like total outcrosses, after further inspection of their pedigrees you will see that most uniquely tie together.         Registered Southdowns 1995 brought Southdowns to the flock. During those first years we were fortunate to work personally with Duron Howard in getting a group of ewes from his keeper pen and his 1st place Fall Ram Lamb at the Ohio Southdown Show and Sale. Over the years we have added bloodlines from Scenic View and Snowhite. In 2000, we leased a Rambo Son from Ray Robison of Sooner Southdowns. Most of our ewes go back to Powerstroke, the 2005 Reserve National Champion Southdown Ram bred by Gail Cole or Topline, a ram we bred with Scenic View on the topside and Howard on the bottom.         Flock History Cornerstone Suffolks and Club Lambs began in the spring of 1988 with a single goal... to produce the complete sheep. Although our focus was primarily on larger framed, breeding type sheep, we had a high demand for 4-H and FFA project lambs. In the early 90's we began shifting gears solely to the production of club lambs. And we have never looked back. With the growing demand for lamb through Virginia Lamb & Meats we have been slowly increasing our flock while still diligenetly culling those that fall below our standards. Right now we are at about 80 select black face ewes and 10 or so registered Southdowns. We continually aim to produce show lambs that are moderate to large in frame size, heavy muscled, tight hided, and stylish. Over the years we have experienced both set backs and significant advances, but one thing stands true... We only offer breeding stock from our keeper pen! If they are not good enough for our flock how can we expect them to be good enough for yours.         Cornerstone Club LambsTM Corey Childs Family Berryville, Virginia 22611 (540) 955-4663 • e-mail:childs@clublambs.com   Copyright 2012-1998.
