ASA Number: 3811993 (View Pedigree)
Yearling SC: 38.4 cm
We had been looking for a homozygous black and homozygous polled Simbrah herd sire and found just what we were looking for at Tom Brothers Ranch. As the sale catalog describes him: “So many things to admire about this Simbrah bull, big time growth, top of the breed API and TI with an impeccable hoof and phenotype. Descends from a longline of productive, perfect uttered cows. His young powerhouse dam records 2 @ 117 WW and breeds on first service. Could not write better performance stats across the board, indexed over 106 for every trait.” We plan to collect him after his first calves are born in the fall of 2022.

Yearling fs: 5.5
Yearling SC: 37.5 cm
This young PB Simmental bull, purchased from Sally Buxkemper, will be used on our red Simbrah cattle. He has a shiny slick coat, tight sheath and a very calm disposition. His dam died when he was three months old so he raised himself in Sally’s pasture sneaking milk when he could. Consequently C99’s weaning weight wasn’t that high but he made up for it as a yearling with a ratio of 104 for YW. He in in the top 4% of Simmental for IMF with a ratio of 107 for BF and a whopping 14.29 REA for a 113 ratio. He has produced great offspring and we are very pleased with his influence in our herd. C99 was sold to a friend who is very impressed with the calves on his commercial Angus cross cows.
