The Pursuit daughters calving this spring have near perfect udders and a great maternal instinct. They are some of the best Angus replacements in the country. We continue to marvel at the excellence of SAV Pursuit. His calves have excelled in every facet of the growth process by coming easy, growing fast and commanding stellar prices at sale time. They are attractive, growthy and crush the scales at weaning and yearling. SAV Pursuit will inject growth, productivity and phenotype to his progeny all while maintaining maternal excellence. “Pursuit is one of the most impressive herd sires to ever walk the breeding pastures at SAV where he saw natural service duty on elite donors. He impressed visitors with his combination of growth, muscle, structural correctness and superior style. We are confident in his ability to sire feminine, high maternal daughters with ideal udders, as his pedigree is stacked for that purpose both top and bottom. His incomparable dam may well be the top phenotype cow in SAV history with a tremendous production record. Pursuit will be a maternal standout breeding bull - keep every daughter. ” - Kelly Schaff

Growth and power bull buyers take note of this set of bulls! Sired by SAV Pursuit, 7A and 7B are as unique in their breeding, as they are in their phenotype. Their donor dam, SAV Emblynette 7749 is a heavy milking, top-producing Net Worth daughter who earned a WR@113 on 3 calves. She was selected by Herbster Angus Farms from the 2012 SAV sale, where she was the top-selling lot at $350,000. These bulls are long sided, rocket fronted and smooth made. We can’t think of a better pair to add the desired “look” all while maintaining performance. Not only do they have the phenotype, they have the EPD profiles to be superior “stud quality” bulls, boasting an impressive $B that ranks in the top of the breed for non-parent bulls. Herbster Highwayman 352 (Lot 7A) has the second high $B in this offering at +100.69. Recommended for cows only. Selling 1/2 revenue sharing interest and full possession. 7

Herbster Fireman 301 has been a “standout” since a very early age. He has a huge ribcage and a great front; moreover, he’s gentle enough for anyone. His CC&7 mother, HF Forever Lady 116, is a unique twist on our foundation donor, SAF Forever Lady 5138. “5138” was an SAF Fame daughter whom Ed says is the reason he came to work at Herbster Angus Farms. Charles bought the cow from Sydenstricker Genetics in 1996. Ed followed her to Falls City in 1998, because he liked her so much! Her lineage is on both sides of this pedigree, as she is also the great-great grand-dam of CC&7. Her progeny were known for fleshing ability, maternal excellence and docility. This young calving ease bull will be no different. He ranks in the top 3% for YW EPD for non-parent bulls. Recommended for heifers.

SAV Harvestor was our $275,000 top-selling selection of the 2011 Schaff Angus Valley Sale. His calves are grabbing the attention of many discriminating cowmen. His first daughter to sell at public auction, SAV Madame Pride 2138, brought an impressive $400,000, and was also purchased by Herbster Angus Farms. Harvestor consistently stamps his progeny with true Angus breed character and performance. They are wide-based, perfect in their structure, with natural thickness, massive volume and expressive muscle shape. His sons are loaded with performance and substance, while his daughters are feminine with superior softness and added capacity. They will make glorious brood cows. He is a true breed changer and is the highest YW EPD bull in the breed.

This calf is proof that Angus first-calf heifers CAN have calves that weigh more than 85 pounds. We picked a select set of calving-ease bred heifers to breed to Harvestor for their first calf, and the Lot 14 bull is an example of that philosophy. The bottom side of this pedigree contains our Everelda Entense line and one of the most reliable cows in the history of Herbster Angus Farms, Three Trees Everelda 9037. The daughters stemming from this great cow are heavy-milking and moderate in their pattern. Ranks in the top 1% for YW and $F and the top 2% for WW and docility. Recommended for cows only.

It has been a true pleasure to have HF Extra K205 115 in our program. His calves come easy at birth and grow, grow, grow! “115” has seen a lot of use in our virgin heifer program, and has proven himself to be a worthy adversary to the bigger growth numbered bulls, posting weaning weights that rival theirs. He is backed by the legacy of maternal producing genetics, being out of a sister to the famous Madame Pride 8264. These are “ground floor” genetics on a great maternal line. His sons sell as lots 26-28. Recommended gladly for heifers. Lot 25 is a carrier for DD.
