The only son of the red-hot new bull BB Propulsion has been a standout all year long. I’m a fan of the extra muscle shape and extension in these cattle, and couldn’t help but put this bull toward the front of the catalog.
He was one of the heaviest weaning bulls of the group with a ratio of 116. I’d expect this explosive growth bull to work great on mature cows.

It’s hard for me to contain my excitement for the HXC Grindstone sire group! They are some of the stoutest bulls we have ever raised. The 2115 bull really stands out with extra body shape, bone, and chest width. He is the kind of young sire that I’m sure will leave a lasting mark on a cow herd.
His EPD profile bolsters numerous traits within the top 10% of the breed, and his data is highlighted by his top ranking adjusted weaning weight and a 117 weaning ratio.

His picture speaks for itself! This up headed bull is explosive in his top shape and commands everyone’s attention that has been through the offering. If you pay attention to the bottom side of his pedigree you will notice both he and 2115 go back to our original herd bull PIE Optimism 5235. These 3/4 brothers could bring some punch to a cowherd needing extra performance.
His outstanding ProS Index of 128 highlights his balanced set of figures
These Grindstone sons are just my kind. 2165 and 2042 are ET sons of our 6131 donor that has set the bar around our ranch for fertility and maternal function, she has been able to maintain a 364 day calving interval on 5 natural calves all while being flushed each of the last 2 springs.

A younger 6341 son that always catches my eye. The Saga cattle have been really good to us, especially from a longevity perspective.
He ranks in the top 8% for STAY and ratioed 102 at weaning.
2140’s dam has raised some of our very best including a top selling Hard Drive son several years ago, and countless daughters that have been retained in the herd. His Sire 6341 is one of the best herd bulls we’ve owned.

ProS ..... Profitability and Sustainability is an all-purpose index that predicts average economic differences in all segments in the beef supply chain. This index is a combination of the breeding objectives modeled in the HerdBuilder and GridMaster selection indexes. In this index, replacement heifers are retained from within the herd and all remaining progeny are fed out to slaughter and sold on a quality-based grid. Traits included in this index include calving ease, growth, HPG, STAY, Mature Weight, Dry Matter Intake and carcass traits. The resulting index is expressed in dollars per head born (Index/High Value).
HB ....... HerdBuilder is a maternal selection index that predicts the economic differences of animals for traits that are important from conception through weaning. Expressed as dollars per head born, HB is calculated based on the scenario that bulls are mated to heifers and cows, replacement heifers are retained and all remaining progeny are marketed at weaning. Traits included in the HB index include Calving Ease Direct, Calving Ease Maternal, Weaning Weight, Milk, Mature Weight, Heifer Pregnancy and Stayability (Index/High Value).
GM....... GridMaster is a selection index that predicts the average economic difference of non-replacement calves through the post-weaning phase of production. GM places selection pressure on growth, feedyard performance and carcass traits. Expressed as dollars per head born, GM is calculated based on the scenario that progeny are fed out to slaughter and marketed on a quality-based carcass grid. Traits included in GM include Average Daily Gain, Carcass Weight, Dry Matter Intake, Marbling, Back Fat and Rib Eye Area (Index/High Value).
CED Calving Ease Direct predicts differences in the percent of calves born unassisted out of 2-year-old dams. (Percent/High Value)

BW Birth Weight predicts differences in actual birth weight of progeny. (Pounds/Low Value)
WW Weaning Weight predicts differences in 205-day weaning weight. (Pounds/High Value)

MILK Milk predicts differences in weaning weight attributed to the milking ability of the animal’s daughters. (Pounds/High Value)
ME Maintenance Energy predicts the difference in maintence energy requirements. (Mcal per Month/Low Value)
HPG Heifer Pregnancy predicts differences in the percent of daughters who are able to conceive and calve at 2 years of age following exposure to breeding. (Percent/High Value)
CEM ...... Calving Ease Maternal predicts differences in the percent of daughters who are able to calve unassisted as 2-year-old heifers. (Percent/High Value)
STAY Stayability predicts differences in the ability of an animals’ retained daughters to remain productive in the herd – calve every year – through 6 years of age. (Percent/High Value)
MARB Marbling predicts differences in marbling score – amount of intramuscular fat measured at the 13th rib. (Marbling Score Units/High Value)
YG Yield Grade predicts differences in USDA Yield Grade, which is calculated using CW, REA and Fat. (Yield Grade Units/Low Value)
CW Carcass Weight predicts differences in actual hot carcass weight. (Pounds/High Value)

He’s a great spread bull that goes from the top 35% for CED and BW, to the top 10% for growth EPD’s.
Another stout Exclusive bull with extra punch. The 528 cow shows up in a lot of our pedigrees and I would expect this son to carry the torch for productivity. The Silver cow line is one of our favorites when it comes to fertility, feet, and udders!
