Description

AU2019 Sierra Ranch 982 Blue Bar Hen
Daughter of '793' & '2360'
(Granddaughter of '4747')
 
'SR 982' is a super nice handling sleek and soft Daughter of '793' that raced competitively in the 2019 Gold Country Challenge.  She is also a Sister of 'Pure Gold' and 'SR 844' both well proven breeders.  Perhaps most importantly she is a Granddaughter of Steve's acclaimed '4747' who was the foundation pigeon for many years.  'SR 982' has been very lightly bred from and has only been bred in one of the last three years.
 
Note:  'SR 1910' is missing 1-1/2 of her toes on her left foot (you can see it in photo).  This has not and does not effect her ability to breed and only slightly effects her walking around the loft.
 
'SR 982' in the 2019 Gold Country Challenge won:
59th Place Average Speed vs. 306 Paid Entries
63rd Place @ 334 Mile Final Race vs. 228 Birds
72nd Place @ 267 Miles vs. 248 Birds
Raced the tough East Course from the High Deserts of Nevada over the High Sierra Mountains and Lake Tahoe
 
She is a Sister of multiple 1st Place Winners including a Sister 'SR 844' who was a 1st Place Combine Winner and has bred multiple diploma winners.
 
Her Half-Sister 'Pure Gold' bred SR-1063 who won Equal 1st @ 334 Mile Final Race Gold Country Challenge 2022.  Another Daughter of 'Pure Gold' won 18th Place Overall Ace Pigeon 2022.  A Grandchild of 'Pure Gold' won EQ 1st (2nd in Clock) @ 309 Miles Blue Bucket 2024.  

An Uncle (Full-Brother of her Father) named 'Charley W' was a standout performer for Steve in the South African Million Dollar Race Series.  'Charley W' won 3rd Place Car Race 2, 13th Place Car Race 3, and 99th Place in the Final Race SAMDPR

'SR 982' is medium-small and longer cast with super feather quality.  She is very sleek in the hand.  She has a strong back, tight vents, longer wings with great spacing, nice wing vibration, great muscle, etc.  She is super bouyant and feels ready for a race.  She has outstanding rich orange eyes with a great circle of correlaton.  Her best qualities are her superb feather and muscle quality.  As mentioned she is missing a full toe on the left foot and part of another toe.  She also shows good character and is super alert, just an all around slick and sleek hen that is a proven breeder.
 
She is for sale as part of the late Steve Sterchi (Sierra Ranch's) Estate Sale for some of his top breeders.  My friend Steve passed away last fall and I (Matt Hans) am listing some of the top birds here on Ipigeon for his wife Kim.  Proceeds from auction go to Steve's wife Kim.
