Angus sire that produces the best daughters

[JHH]

And in my opinion, Right Time cows are prettier than EXT cows.

They are all black ,throw a baldie face on them then you have pretty.

Ah yes, gleanings from the field with a pinch of feciciousness from a sample of the participants. I typically use these boards to get leads and not necessarily commitments to base my benchmark. The original post was in regard to to fertility, calving ease, and udder, and genestar marker tests -- What Angus sire will produce the best females for a foundation herd?

It is obvious the term "the best" females should have been worded "outstanding" since the minutiae minutemen have been called to arms to point out all misgivings represented in the original request. Thank you Oldtimer and Frankie for some input as well as other names my short-term memory is not providing. Both N Bar Prime Time D806 and Emulation EXT were names that I needed.

First and foremost they have to get pregnant, secondly they must calve, third they must milk and hold up, and fourth they must taste good with marketable marbling or it is all a moot point. In no way was I looking to chase numbers but since a small number of head will be considered, a focused approach is optimal.

Let's find absolution without all the accountability.

If you want good EPD's to go with the quality calves, you might look at these bulls and see how they fit. They have some of the sires discussed in the pedigrees. They are all AMF, and some have Genestar info.

Genetics by Design 049

You suggested Genetics By Design 049 and he is one that I have on my short list. GAR Predestined certainly looks the part. His BW might be high but his ancestry reads like a 4th generation Yale blue blood

Thanks for the post.

The only thing with Predestined is he only has one star for the tenderness gene, and he has no record on the quality or feed. If you had a cow with a good genestar report he would be a candidate in my book, the rest of him looks really good.

That B/R New Design 323-8212 should work out good for you if you were looking for calving ease, if you like the rest of him.

It appears that all of these bulls I listed are also NHF. :banana:
