He's a double bred EXT on the top side and a Rito 707 cow on the bottom. those Blackcap May cows are good cattle, and the EXT are good but slightly quicker than the average bear...
His Doc is to 10% and $EN is only top 85%. It looks like he is DNA tested, but only has interim EPD.
It will be interesting to see how he shakes out. Definitely a big bet.
Also, FWIW the Hoover Dams we have had have been nice cows and quiet, but they don't seem to live very long in our system.

His pedigree page at AAA shows no dna parentage or genomic profile results as of 2/20/18.
 
"Schaff Angus Valley, who has the best cow herd in the world, ..................."

I did not know that:)

I used 50 straws of ext, ended up with a dozen of so cows, long term, outa him. A little smaller frame size than our Sitz bulls, really nice udders---basically no disposition issues, but only my wife and I are around our cattle, it seems that cattle reflect the time spent with them and how they're handled.
 
Black Angus steer that won the show sold for $14,250.00 at the Denver Nationals but was really a Charolais:

This was back in the days when there was a Chianina bull in a pen at every Registered Angus outfit. :lol:

I kinda figured this to be the ultimate compliment towards the Char bunch.
 
We kept quite a few EXT daughters years back. Good feet and udders. Disposition wasn't bad, except for some of them would get upset if they had to calve in a barn. Much better if they didn't.
