What to use on a NW cow?

[Richnm]

Going to AI my NW next week. AAA# 18101358 . Her docility is ok. She will eat out of my hand, but doesn't like a tight pen. Any recommendations? Current inventory
Female Bismarck
Deadwood
Ashland
Resource
Female and conventional SAV Density
Ext
Paxton
DB Wheelhouse
Right Time
Paxton - that's probably to hot of a cross
Sitz Barricade
This will be my last calf from her and she will be sold.
Her Whitlock calf was a tank. She has an Exclusive heifer in her right now.
Thanks

Patty II AAA# 18101358 - I think her BW epd is high enough. I might try Poss Deadwood.

If Patty calves unassisted and you don't care about BW, then maybe SAV Density AAA# 14725035. Patty has marbling and Density should add some ribeye. Low docility. Regardless of the calf's gender I would expect it to be a firecracker.

I know it's not on your list but I've really liked the stunner X net worth calves I've seen

 

[Richnm]

I might have one let me check

I'm really liking the look of sitz barricade. I think he would keep alot of the power and growth that you like in the NW and not sacrifice frame size. I would be hesitant to cross any of the SAV bulls you listed. Worried what crossing up traveler 004 that close would do to feet. That's just my 2 cents, it might not even be worth that much...

Suggestions are based on the animal's EPD numbers.

You have to look and breed for structure first, or the fantasy numbers won't come true.
