I-80 son named Road Trip

just heard this new  i-80 son is now freezing high quality semen and with i-80 semen price going up weekly i thought this may be a good alternative to him.out of a first calf heifer and from what i am told is thicker and  deeper bodied than his daddy.anyone on here see him in denver.

Sire: I-80

Dam: Momentum (First Calf Heifer)

I really liked his look in Denver. Thought he was big boned, great muscle shape, good hip and levelness of hip and top, good top shape. Thought he had a good soggy middle. Maybe a tick straight on back wheels for me but JMO.

Shawn do you know if the dam is a JSC Momentum heifer? I've been watching that bull for 3/4 years now & am wanting to know how big of framed cows they are going to make.

I believe Matt lautner purchased this bull today according to his blog

Looks like it. He is selling 1/3 semen interest on him Thursday. Wonder how much that will bring?

He renamed the bull I-67. So you may have a hard time finding him if your looking for road trip. I know he has released a flyer for him.

I think it could go for a decent price, he has a chance to have a good future if he. Best thing I noticed is I-80 is getting it done!

CAB...Yes she is a JSC Momentum daughter.  Moderate sized cow - only one I've seen so I can't comment any more than that on frame.

Thanks TWR.

I pulled his picture right from cattle visions under road trip.

I think he just recently changed the name. At least that's what it looks like from reading his blog

I found the showtimes cover with the bull on it. It is attached.

The auction opened today I guess, last time I checked it was at $23,333. If everyone on SP chipped in  2 or 3 bucks we could be in on him.

i think now that he has changed hands in ownership i will just stick to using his daddy unless i can get a few straws that abs has.

I cked in on JSC Momentum today & his price has doubled now. What I was waiting to find out was how much frame he may add & was told that the largest cow that Schafer's had out of him was a FS #6. I would have bought a little to try if he was still $25.00. Sold by owners only now.

We've had a few Momentums.  They're right on on frame, not too big or small.  He probably didn't breed as stout as he looks, but the females are sure making good cows with moderate bw's. I think the Momentum's bw's  with I-80 added to the equation have made for a nice new alternative for a club calf calving ease bull.

It was same bid as last last night, notice just one bidder??? Not many getting in on this one.

Anyone have any thoughts about a higher % Chi bull that will leave great females without increasing FS too much? If not I guess I keep on using CTR Success.

Lance Ellsworth with Cattle Visions was the winning bidder
