"Maui" - Back Country Acres Maui


Maui is a balanced, correct American Oberhasli buck with strong topline support, a long and correct rump, and good body capacity without coarseness. He is masculine but proportional, with a smooth shoulder assembly, firm upright pasterns, and correct rear leg angulation. His structure holds well across seasons and footing, and he maintains balance and correctness even during rut.

Maui consistently transmits length, levelness, and overall structural stability. His chest floor is moderate to moderately wide, and he adds usable body depth and heartgirth without pushing offspring toward excess bulk. He excels as a substance and durability sire, reinforcing topline strength, rump support, and general correctness while maintaining dairyness.

We tested Maui for alpha-s1 casein and he carries the A/F variants, which may be beneficial for cheese-making or for families seeking broader milk-use flexibility.
