Ace of diamonds

[kndcattle]

I have seen a lot of nice ace of diamonds heifers in the show ring. what kind of cows do they turn out to be. Good milkers, easy keeping, stuff like that. I was considering using him on our donor to get a replacement for her. Also what kind of cows does he click with.

I dont think semen is available on the open market?

He works real well on Sonny dtrs and Dble Vision dtrs. We have a 1st calf hfr that is nursing a CF Twilight bull calf that is doing a great job. Holding her weight good and has a really nice udder.  She's a full sister to lot#39 in Cates sale.

Still would like some info anyways even if it isn't available.  What other pb shorthorn bulls make good replacement. I should say I want a bull who's daughters can produce show type offspring.  Thanks

We also found Ace of Diamonds semen difficult to find and so we are using DRM Phineas  -  a son of AOD that Mithchell's sold in the '12 Iowa Royal to Phil Raisbeck and another guy.  They are selling semen.  I believe there are some pictures of Phineas on Tom Mitchell's website.
