Whizard is extra big bodied, sound and big topped. He is moderate and heavy structured. Lastly and perhaps most importantly is the cow power that lies on the bottom side. He hails from the same dam as GCC Cerveza, one of the greatest known Whiskey son’s to date. With his baldy face, his head turning style, and the greatness of pedigree on top and bottom, make Whizard a must use sire for the coming year. If you’re needing a shot of maternal in your cow base, use the magic of the Whizard to add some pizzazz. In the words of John Griswold, “Whizard is big boned, stout, hairy, he’s out of Cerveza’s mother, and on top of all that he’s a baldy.” That right there sums it up pretty well wouldn’t you say! 82 lbs BW.

1019 enthusiast line up because Masterlock is bred right up your alley. OCC Emblazon and 816B are full siblings, both 6807’s out of 1019. This wasn’t a chance mating, as you study it out, take great note on the pedigree. This is not a hit and miss sire, he’s bred for consistency. Limestone owns possession on this bull, if you have the privilege take the chance and view him in his working clothes. You can be rest assured he’ll have his own set of great one’s! Masterlock can be used with confidence on first calf heifers but don’t hesitate to use him on cows as his calves always seem to have a little more body and that eye catching correctness and balance.

Cerveza, the Whiskey alternative that carries the consistency and style that keeps the family name in high regard. With Whiskey semen being increasingly harder to get a hold of, this is the go to bull to produce the same type and kind as his potent sire. He works on a wide variety of cows. He’ll add moderation, thickness, pretty, and power, with the hair and look that’s made Whiskey famous. He combines the two of the most prominent pedigree’s in the industry, Chill Factor and Irish Whiskey, with a dam that produces the right kind every time. Maternal brother to Whizard.

If your looking for a squeaky clean Whiskey pedigree that will add some marketability to your calf crop, Dubai just may be your bull. Versatility runs high in the type of females he works on. The calves come hairy, and powerful. He works great on Simmy or Maine based cows to add the extra shot of look that it takes to market those “early calves.” Justin’s Becky, the Dam of Dubai not only carries with her the maternal power of the Chill Factor influence but she came with her own bragging rights. She saw purple numerous times in the show ring and them went on to be a production masterpiece. Dubai is proving to be a valuable breeding piece. One of his daughters was Champion Maine at the Oklahoma Youth Expo. They are the right type and kind. PHAF.

It’s been said that PHA clean bulls don’t carry the same bone and power as the carrier cattle. Patton would flat out prove this statement WRONG, he’s a powerhouse. We found him at Thrasher’s sale and let’s just say Whiskey love happened! When used on Angus based chubby type females he is potent to what he can produce, with the added benefit of being PHA free. He’s a maternal powerhouse sire with the combination of Chill Factor (Midnight Chill) and Whiskey, plus like any great sire his bulls are to be admired. He has produced many top sellers in GCC sales and was the sire of the high selling bull in the 2009 Grass to Grid bull sale. Actual BW 83 lbs. PHAF.

THEpROVEN TEST OF TIME...A LEGACY POWER AND CONSISTENCY, 17 YEARS AND COUNTING Chill Factor needs no introduction, he has created a legacy all his own. He was born in 1994, 17 YEARS ago, and he is still a top seller that is a go to bull in the industry to make maternal powerhouses. His daughters are still in ever increasing demand across the nation for one reason alone, THEY FLAT OUT WORK. Chill Factor daughters are producing champions in shows across the nation from county fairs to National titles. You never see Chill Factor in a pedigree of a sale book when he isn’t noted in the footnotes as being a sire of maternal greatness. We promoted Chill Factor 16 years ago on the same grounds we are promoting him on today, HE WILL MAKE GREAT FEMALES. Case in point, at the 2010 GCC Classic Female Sale, 27 Chill Factor daughters demanded an average price of $3,513 with a high of $17,750. The pedigree of the 066 line on the bottom side of Chill Factor is one that has power in the blood. They are phenotypically beautiful and they breed like a charm, producing great ones every time. Chill Factor’s dam also produced Midnight Chill. Use on chubby made Angus females, and enjoy! PHAF. Owned with: Thrasher Cattle Co,

The chit the chat and all the stir at the 2010 GCC Classic Sale was about the up and coming herd sire Merger. His daughters wore all the class and sass needed to turn more than a few heads and demanded an average price of $12,283 on 6 head. He produces cattle that have the show ring look and the brood cow feel. Merger carries a dose of 066 on the bottom side for added maternal POWER IN THE BLOOD. He works on a variety of different cows, preferably Maine based but he also works well on Angus and Simmy percentage cattle. They have the look of “great ones” from the time they hit the ground.

A LASTING IMPRESSION iRISH wHISKEY, DEFINES BONHAM’S CHANT, “POWER IN THE BLOOD!” Visual analysis is the major determination when we evaluate livestock. The ability to sire that eye catching correctness and balance is an attribute that makes cattle great and bulls famous. Irish Whiskey has created a sensation throughout the industry that is untouched in his ability to transmit “the look” to not only his offspring but down through the generations. The importance of a touch of Whiskey on the bottom side not only makes them good, it makes them great. Whiskey daughters and granddaughters have won almost ever major show across the nation. They are walking out of the winners circle and right into the donor pen. Just recently at the American Royal the Supreme Champion female and three out of the four Junior Maine champions were out of Whiskey daughters. Whiskey works with Simmy influenced cattle, he works on Angus based cattle, and his ability to produce seedstock Maine genetics is unmatched. Steer producers across the nation are just coming to the realizations of how profitable a powerful Irish Whiskey daughter can be when matched with Heat Wave influenced genetics. With countless high sellers and champions gracing not only the winners circle but also the pastures as top donors and producers, Irish Whiskey has secured his place in history as one of the “Classics.” PHAC.
