MSU CRV Dark Knight 041 This SAV Pioneer 7301 son was the pick of the 2011 MCA/MSU Bull Test sale in Crystal, Michigan, as the high indexing Angus bull of the bull test.
Like his sire, MSU CRV Dark Knight 041 possesses the complete and balanced phenotype that makes him a sound and attractive package. His EPD profile ranks him at the top of the breed in growth performance and carcass merit. This bull is the right kind for whether you sell calves at weaning - or feed them for slaughter. You can expect heavy weaning weights and explosive yearling growth.

The pedigree power that Dark Knight shows will propel this young bull to another level. Breed greats like SAV Final Answer, Boyd New Day 8005, TC Total 410, and Hyline Right Time 338 make up his lineage. His productive young dam, MSU Elba 824 is a pasture favorite. Her next step is the Donor pen at East Lansing, MI.
of Mark Sneed
Beyond beef producers, dairymen can benefit from Dark Knight‘s quality. Use of this bull on the bottom third of your herd will produce very desirable, black-hided feeder calves that are commanding high prices across the country.
