Any interest in selling your eye candy semen? Or if anybody else on here has some they wouldn't mind parting with, I'd be interested!

I-80 would be the best you have.He has made excellent heifers,winning steers and some promotion bulls and is easy calving.Some of your others were not around long.Dakota Gold is popular .No matter what bull you use your cows are just as important as the bull. Bulls such as Monopoly have survived the test of time and outsell most of the new hot ones.

I was looking at what else is in my tank this bull was before my time and was told he was one of the original pha carriers a full blood Maine named stinger would he work on some of my soggy Angus cows or not worth using.

To make a maternal base for club calf production in 3 generations, I'd use the Tugboat semen on your current cows.  That should give you about a 1/2 angus 3/8 sim 1/8 maine cow that you can breed almost any way that you want to.  Take a look at the cow and her solid gold calves in the thread below.
