His halfRED ALLAVON DYNA QUEEN 61S sister was Reserve Grand Champion in Dawson Creek. He has a moderate birthweight of 84 lbs. His dam was bought at Red Roundup as a calf for $6,500.

EXPLANATION OF EPD TERMS
EPD = Expected Progeny Differences They are another tool used to select a bull and are predictions on how each bull rates against his own contemporary group and the rest of the breed. EPD averages for all Red Angus calves born in 2018 (these are the averages to compare the Red Angus Bulls in this catalogue to): BW +1.2 WW +35 YW +58 MILK +21 TM+36 CE +2.4 YG - REA +0.33 CW +20 MARB +0.23 BW: This value predicts the difference in avg. birth weight of a bull’s calves compared to breed averages. WW: Indicates the ability of a sire’s claves to grow from birth to weaning (expressed in pounds). YW: Growth from birth to yearling (expressed in pounds) MILK: A reflection of the milking ability of a bull’s daughters. It compares the difference in gain between birth to weaning of a bull’s daughter’s calves compared to the calves from daughters of other sires evaluated. TM: Calculated by suing ½ WW + Milk. Predicts weaning weight on a bull’s daughter’s calves. CE: The average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to first calf heifers. YG: Expressed in USDA yield grade score, the EPD predicts differences in carcass yield grade score to be expected from progeny. REA: Expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in ribeye area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. CW: Expressed in lbs, this EPD predicts differences in the average hot carcass weight in progeny. MARB: A prediction of future progeny’s performance for carcass marbling scores.
