Sprint is proving to be the source of unsurpassed early growth in the beef business. He is the product of breeding a high accuracy sire to a daughter of a high accuracy bull with a pedigree that stacks some of the breeds’ all-time greatest females ever.
His pedigree is also like a who's who in the breeding department with a careful blend of Traveler, Candolier Forever 376, Mytty in Focus, 6595, EXT, 036, Traveler 124 and Rito 707. It's a cinch that his daughters will make fabulous mother cows.
Sprint is one of only three current sires in the breed that can match his unique specs and is as docile as the pedigree indicates. You'll love his big, masculine hindquarters, tremendous length and the capacity he offers.

When you look at Contrast you see a herd bull with an eye appealing phenotype type and extremely correct feet that will last in the most rugged of conditions. His dam, Med Rock Gala 702 892, has a proven ability to produce outstanding progeny. A full brother to Contrast topped the 2013 production sale in Bowman, ND. Contrast is a proven heifer bull that sires calves that not only come on their own, but can get up and grow. While choosing a bull to build your herd around, you can count on Contrast to sire a truly great cow that will not only thrive in real ranch conditions, but will produce the pounds that pay in the ring.

Really Windy is proving himself to be a go-to heifer bull in our program and his numbers reflect it. With a +12 CED he ranks in the to
p 10% of the entire Angus breed and will continue to prove himself as a sleep-all-night calving ease sire. The heifers we are seeing from him are certainly going to be that nice moderate keeper kind, so don't hesitate to give his sons a try.

ROCK'N CC 552 was the 2016 high seller sold to Alkali Inc. (Mac Tooke) of Ekalaka, MT. He was used at Cedar Mesa Ranch in Colorado, along with Alkali Inc. and ourselves, with great success.
He was a sale stand-out with his quiet disposition and ability to sire calves that come easy and get up and grow. We are calving his first crop of daughters this year and they have quite even teats as well as impeccable bag structure. The new mommas are showing great manners and yet have the maternal know-how to get their new baby to his feet.
