That would be exciting to see! I am a Rito 707 fan and have been for years.

One thing that convinced me of the good in that bull was when several

years ago someone interviewed some of the big players in the Angus

seedstock business. They asked each one what they thought was the best

bull they ever raised (or used) was; when the got to Dale Davis he

replied, "Rito 707". Those of you that don't know, Dale was a Pioneer

breeder in the Angus business. He has raised many fine bulls over the

years past 707. I was really impressed with his answer so I started

studying all I could find on 707. He is an Angus bloodline STAR.


Another older bull that I have always liked is Viking GD60 (Denny has

some of those) and GDAR Rito 054. I called Russ DeNowh once and talked

to him about 054 vs 2100. He told me "I have never culled a bad bag

cow out of 054, but I have 2100." 054 was a real cow maker. The bulls

weren't outstanding, but the cows sure were. O54 was bought by

John Hamilton, Cedar Hills Ranch and when he disbursed in Miles City

several years back, he had lots of people on the seats vying for the

054 daughters.
