Every once in a while, a truely promising calf comes along that seems to fire on all cylinders. We think 709 is one of these bulls. Right from birth to carcass he has exceeded in every trait. Birth weight of 74 lbs., weaning weight of 786 lbs., an off test of 1239, a beautifully shaped set of testicals and an industry knock-out actual ribeye measurement of nearly 16 sq inches! His dam is one impressive Fortune 2000 daughter. At the productive age of eleven years, she has a flawless udder and is a super footed individual with not even so much as a crack in her foot. Her production record is sterling with a proven daughter at Johnson livestock at Peebles, a herdsire serving duties at Standard Hill Angus at Maidstone and two daughters retained here at home. All this wrapped into a pleasing profile makes for a promising herd builder.
