If you are in the Indiana area you should get a hold of Chad Ennis and make a stop at Shady Maple Farms. They have a lot of really nice shorthorns and shorthorn pluses. They utilize a lot of out cross genetics and their cows have to meet commercial standards. Phenotypically their cattle seem to...

I'd say HC as well but I guess it all depends on what your shooting for. What kind of shorthorn do you want to produce? 

Does anyone have the full results of the sale? I'm kicking myself for not going

If you really like Fu then pay the little extra and use Fu. Unless you have done a lot of background on the genetics of the bull and your cows, don't incur more risk by using something unproven.

I couldn't find any papers on him when I searched.

Here is a picture I found of Sacred Ground off Wynne's Facebook page. Never heard of him and only found a couple calves on Wynne's page that were sired by Sacred Ground. I imagine Wynne would be the best to inquire on Sacred Ground.

I think you are thinking of Thermal Energy AJ. If so, the lot 5 bull that Bowman's sold in their November sale sold for over 40K. I saw him and I thought he was pretty neat. Super sound, functional, and very nicely designed in his pattern. I wonder if that cow, Maggie 73R, didn't have as much to...

I know it brought $375 at the Summit sale. It brings at least that at Cates's sale and sometimes in the 4's. There may be some in the Tank of Treasures sale and that may be a good place to buy it worth the money.

HIA Monopoly Fu Man Chu IGWT As far as siring steers go, those 4 seem to be in a tier of their own. Last year I did some recording of jackpot shows and HIA and Fu sired over 60 percent of the steers in the top 5. Monopoly is still prevalent among steer winners and IGWT seems to be gaining some...

Today is sale day. Still time to get your next herd sire

The Maximus calves I've seen are really impressive. The lot 1 bull is the real deal. I think Max can add a lot of value to the mainstream shorthorn genetics. Lot of power and a lot of substance.

I think these bulls have a lot of value in the Shorthorn breed. Real World, functional cattle, that can flat out perform. A lot of outcross genetics that can add value without sacrificing phenotype Take a look at the offering and see what you think. https://auctions.thewendtgroup.com/auction/4071

Does anyone have the full results?  Curious to see what Dumbledore brought among others

Does anyone have Jungels sale results?

Mindbender- I wouldn't use him on heifers. I also wouldn't use his sire Starburst on heifers. Cherry Fillet- Small calves with some good growth. They make terrific cows but they don't have a lot of show appeal. If you want a live calf that will grow and make a good cow he should be a solid...
