Gibbs Farms Semen Directory 2019 by EDJE

n Alumni’s best son with added performance and less birth weight.

n His heavy-muscle, big-middle, big-scrotal, sound-made, great-disposition sons have proven to be a popular favorite in commercial bull sales. They are the commercial cattlemen’s kind. n Daughters are proving to be massive-middle, heavy milking cows with the much-desired slick hair needed in the Fescue belt.

n Mountaineer continues to be a “must-use” sire that can add immediate and long-term value to any segment of the beef industry.

n Extreme high-performance, marbling, and economic index values, ranking in the top 1% of the breed for YW, Marb, $API, and $TI. n Siring progeny with added performance in a smaller frame size with exceptionally long body length. n Excels in overall leg soundness, standing on a big, perfectly shaped hoof.

n No daughters in production yet and out of a sire and dam with MM EPDs in excess of 25, but his extreme high growth EPDs apparently are having a negative correlation effect on his MM EPD. n Use XCEED on cows for added performance and carcass value without added frame size.

n Pay Dirt has been a favorite of cattlemen touring ORIgen this past year and has established himelf as possibly the best Payweight 1682 son in the industry.

n With 121 progeny records in the IGS Multi-Breed database, including a large sampling in the ASA Carcass Merit Program, his powerful growth numbers are there to stay and he is maintaining near breed average calving ease. n His first year of sons in the recent 2019 Cow Camp Ranch Sale were considered by many good cattlemen as the best sire group in the sale that ultimately produced the two high-selling bulls.

n Just like his sire, Pay Dirt will produce the cattlemen’s kind.

n The old man that has stood the test of time, Alumni is still our #1 go-to sire for large commercial herds looking for a sire to use on cows that can do it all. n Whether you sell your calves at weaning, retain ownership to the rail or retain all heifers as replacements, Alumni progeny get the job done. n His thick-quartered, big-volume, high-carcass value sons always prove popular with commercial bull buyers.

n His small-framed, heavy-milking daughters have great udder and teat quality and it’s common to see weaning age calves at their side almost as big as mama. No herd, seedstock or commercial, can have too many Alumni daughters working in their pastures.
