Simme Valley Macho As U? The Simmental? If so, here is his breeder's page. They have many of offspring and have consigned to plenty of sales around the east coast.

I hope this helps! I was also wondering if anyone else had calves out of him! I was interested in purchasing semen if they all look similar to what I have seen.

The breeder of Macho as U responds alot on the Cattle Today Forum. All the offspring of him that I've seen in sales and catalog's have looked pretty nice.

I have a halfblood heifer that I want to breed to a simmental bull. I have been searching all the catalogs still can't seem to come up with one? I want something homo black and polled, calve ease and proven. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I would use Grandmaster. No calving problems, adds lots of milk and muscle. He has sired some good ones. Dew Time has been around longer, but Grandmaster adds milk and muscle, while IDT takes milk away. If you are looking for a show animal, IDT's milk wouldn't matter as much.

Check out FBFS Warsaw he's on Cattle Visions. Good Calving Ease, Good BW epd, Good Milk, Polled, Homozygous Black. Also my preference would be Duracell over his brother In Dew Time.

People have used Upgrade on heifers with minimal problems, but I personally wouldn't risk it. He had a large BW himself. I have heard of some calves coming large.
