growth.When he gets too big for your heifers, move him to service your main cow herd.

EPD bull to sell! He also ties as the 2

K463 is a bull with an ideal record backed by an extremely productive dam. K463 is
a deep bodied, square made bull with lots of rib and guts. He was the 2
nd
high IMF
scanning bull of his crop, earning him the 4
th
top Marbling EPD among the fall bulls.
Pathfinder dam B536 has a perfect record. She is one of the top marbling females
in the herd, and her last daughter was the #1 adjusted IMF heifer calf of her crop!
Three of B536’s progeny have been among the top 10 weaning weight calves of their
crop! B536 has a 366 day calving interval that will shorten up this year as she had
the second calf of the fall 2012 crop.
An up-and-coming granddaughter of B536 produced the excellent lot 105 bull.
K463 is a bull you can easily use on heifers, without sacrificing growth and $Beef. He
ties as the 2
nd
highest CED and 5
th
lowest BW EPD fall bull selling.
If you don’t have a CC&7 son yet in your herd bull battery, and have used Hoover
blood before, this guy offers a different pedigree on the bottom side for our repeat
customers. 14 of his EPDs rank in the top 1-30% of the breed!

A very complete bull here! One of the standouts in the pen, K450 is a super deep
ribbed bull with some guts. His big top is indicative of his huge ribeye. K450 was the
3
rd
biggest ribeye scanning bull of his crop! We liked K450 so well as a calf, we bred
his dam back the same way for the next year.
Great Hoover cows pack the top and bottom sides of this pedigree. Represented
are some of the biggest growth and biggest ribeye bulls that have ever been part
of our program.
Dam A542 is a tremendous cow that helped her sire earn Pathfinder status. Three
of A542’s progeny have been among the top 10 weaning weight calves of their
respective crops! Two exemplary daughters work in the herd; one has earned
Pathfinder status.
Maternal grandsire was known for his true growth and added frame. His Pathfinder
dam recorded 14-99 BWR and 14-109 WR.
7 Pathfinders are found in this pedigree! Recommended for use on cows.
