Owned with Darrell Law and purchased at the 2004 Partners For Progress Bull sale
HOMOZGOUS BLACK - Important because several Cadence sons carry the red gene
GENTLE DISPOSITION - Important in that Cadence sons do have the reputation for being high headed and pass that on to their offspring. Pardner is easy going and easy handling
EASY FLESHING - After heavy use the last 3 breeding seasons he comes off the cows in excellent body condition. We think this is something his sons and daughters will do as well.
MILKING ABILITY - With a milk EPD at 20 we expect that his daughters will milk
CARCASS - REA EPD of 0.44 and IMF EPD of 0.14; age adjusted performance at ultrasound of REA 14.33 (ratio 109%tile) and IMF 5.53 (ratio 129%tile)
CALVING EASE - His first 41 calves at Schmidt Farms had an average birth weight of 74.1 LBS. Most of the heifers we bred him to were closer to 65LBS. and we didn't have to pull any calves.
"NEXT SIRE" - One of the original bulls chosen by Ultimate Genetics to represent what Brangus bulls should be like in the future
