MESSMER PACKER S008
Description: ..\My Pictures\Cattle\Sires\Messmer Packer S008 web.jpg

RAAA Reg. #: 1109534

Packer is an exciting sire in our line up with extremely well balanced numbers.  He is a high volume bull with lots of muscling that he passes on to his calves.  The bulls on test are extremely thick with good depth and a nice broad top and have very correct feet and legs.  They definitely catch your attention as you walk in the feedlot.  Look for Packer sons to follow in their sire’s footsteps, producing above average REA.   We are calving out our second set of Packer daughters and they have attractive udders and are in excellent flesh.

GMRA LARAMIE 5110
Description: ..\My Pictures\Cattle\Sires\GMRA Laramie 5110 2009 web.jpg

RAAA Reg. #: 1039249

Laramie was our high selling bull in our 2006 sale, selling to ABS.  His calves are attracting lots of attention.  The birth weights are moderate and the calves' growth has been explosive.  In fact, the Laramie sons on test had the 2nd highest average weaning ratio.  They are very long and visiting customers always pick them out because of their extra length.  They also show thick muscling with excellent fleshing ability.  A quick glance at his pedigree will show the tremendous Lakota cow family, which is one of the foundations of the Green Mountain Red Angus herd.

HXC CONQUEST 4405P
CREATOR: gd-jpeg v1.0 (using IJG JPEG v62), quality = 95

RAAA Reg. #: 975924

Conquest was our top AI sire for heifers for the last two years and we have had great results.  His calves are moderate birth and both the 2010 and 2011 calf crops were easy calving.  In fact, Conquest had the lowest average birth weight of any sire we used this year.  Conquest has an incredible birth to growth spread, and compliments that with outstanding carcass numbers.  Look for his progeny to be moderate framed with excellent eye appeal.  We are calving out our first Conquest daughters and they are making excellent mothers. The bulls on test are broad topped and deep with tons of muscle and had the best marbling scores of any sire group, with a 111 average.

LJC MISSION STATEMENT P27

RAAA Reg. #: 960383

Mission Statement is truly a “no holes” sire.  It’s not every day you can find a sire that is at the breed average for birth weight, yet gives you the power of a weaning EPD in the top 17% and a yearling EPD in the top 4%.  In fact, his sons on test turned in the #2 average yearling ratio at 106.  This high growth bull also provides you with outstanding carcass potential.  His REA EPD is in the top 1% of the breed and his sons in this offering had the #2 average REA ratio.  These calves offer excellent eye appeal and conformation.  The daughters in production are doing an excellent job, with an average MPPA of 102.3.

FRITZ JUSTICE 8013

RAAA Reg. #: 1255322

Here is a sire who’s progeny is producing some of the most consistently impressive performance we have seen.  We purchased Justice with Accelerated Genetics in the spring of 2009, but this is the first year we have really had a chance to see what his calves can do.  In a nutshell, we are impressed!  Of the sire groups of the bulls on test his progeny are tied for the 3rd lowest average birth weight, yet turned in the highest weaning and yearling ratios.  The 9 sons in the sale posted an average weanling ratio of 117 and an average yearling ratio of 111.2.  They also have the highest average REA ratio of 108 and were #3 for marbling at 102.

GMRA CITADEL 6109

RAAA Reg. #: 1111630

Citadel was ABS Global’s pick of our 2007 bull crop here at Green Mountain.  A large birth to yearling spread combined with the power of Citadel’s dam made him a very attractive package.  Citadel has problem free calving and a nice, low average birth weight.  He turns that moderate birth weight into impressive weaning and yearling numbers.  We are very excited about his daughters in production.  They are good, solid producers, posting MPPAs of 100 or higher.

VGW NORTHERN CANYON 5109
Description: ..\My Pictures\Cattle\Sires\Vic for web.jpg

 

RAAA Reg. #: 1081768

We purchased Northern Canyon as one of the top sellers at Westphal’s 2007 sale.  His pedigree showcased sires that were new to our breeding program and provided an excellent source of new genetics.  He promotes calving ease while keeping outstanding growth and performance in his calves.  It’s rare to find a bull that is nearly 70% proven with a birth EPD is in the top 37%, weaning in the top 14%, and yearling in the top 10%.  Just an incredible birth to growth spread that he passes on to his progeny.  His calves are extremely thick with great capacity, excellent muscling and an outstanding rear quarter.

GMRA EBV 266

RAAA Reg. #: 372528

GMRA EBV 266 takes us back to some of our old school genetics.  Way back in 1993 he was the high selling bull at Midland Bull Test, selling to Westphal Red Angus.  Over the years we have had numerous daughters in production that were absolutely some of the best females we have ever raised and were the main reason we decided to bring him out of retirement.  In fact, the daughters we currently have in production have the highest average MPPA, 102.4, of any sire group used this year.  266 daughters have outstanding udders and teats, breed back well, and showcase all of the eye appeal, muscling and depth of 266 himself, and we look forward to seeing some of his daughters back in the herd.  The last straws of semen we had were used in 2010, so the last progeny you will see are offered in our 2012 sale.

LAUBACH LOMBARDI 9014

RAAA Reg. #: 1310573

Lombardi was our pick of the 2009 bull calf crop at Laubach Red Angus.  We were excited to find a Packer son from another breeder that we felt showcased all the strengths we were seeing in our own Packer calves.  He went into service here in the spring of 2010 as a cleanup sire.  The Lombardi son offered here has outstanding growth and excellent eye appeal.  Look to see more of this young sire in the future.

We purchased Expedition in 2006 as the high selling bull at NILE.  He has proven to be one of the most powerful bulls in our herd sire line-up, with an extremely powerful set of EPDs.  His calves are packed with performance and their growth just never slows down.  If you are looking to add pounds to your calves at weaning Expedition progeny are an excellent choice.
