FALL BULLS
★
★
K475 is a high growth bull that is deep ribbed, long bodied, big hipped and good
boned. The famous pedigree of CC&7 X Gridiron X Neutron makes K475 a 7/8
brother to Hoover Dam!
★
★
Dam C410 has already brought two photo feature sons to auction. Sons have been
selected by Charlie Leonhardt, Terry Beck, and Marc Feller. Charlie runs cattle in
some tough country in Wyoming, and said his son by C410 (and full brother to K475)
travels well and puts weight back on faster after breeding season than any bull he
has ever had.
★
★
C410’s only daughter has been retained as a replacement, and her son sells as lot 116.
★
★
Both grandam and great grandam have achieved Pathfinder status. The bottom half
of this pedigree is packed with Pathfinders, indicating superior females!
★
★
Use on large framed heifers or cows. He is among the top 5 fall bulls selling for
Docility EPD!

K458 is a great “spread” bull from a BW EPD in the best 15% of the breed to a YW
EPD in the best 3%! Weaning at over 800 pounds from a first calf heifer, I’d say this
guy has what it takes to make genetic improvement! He is a soggy made bull with
good hip, rib, and bone.
★
★
K458 was the 3
rd
high weaning weight and 3
rd
high yearling weight bull of all the
non-ET bull calves in his crop! A strong finish at over 1400 pounds of yearling weight
makes him unique.
★
★
Dam H431 is a beautiful uddered female that has a big future at Hoover Angus.
★
★
Read about grandam C410 in the footnote of 115.
★
★
Use K458 on heifers for a couple years before moving him to your cows. He ties as
the 2
nd
highest CED fall bull selling and the 4
th
lowest BW EPD.

K499 is a correct made bull that offers good scrotal size, extension, length, and
depth. His pedigree indicates he has potential to add frame size to his progeny. For
our repeat customers, he offers a pedigree with no CC&7 or Gridiron.
★
★
K499 has some of the highest growth EPDs of the bulls selling! He ties as the
3
rd
high WW EPD fall bull to sell. The two closest sires in his pedigree have been
regarded as two of the top growth bulls ever used at Hoover Angus.
★
★
Dam B4 was a high performing female. She weaned at 782 lbs., WR 116, YW 1102
lbs., YR 111. She was the 6
th
top weaning weight heifer of her crop. B4 had a huge
ribeye of 13.7”, ratio 105.
★
★
B4’s progeny work for David Cheers and Jerry Maas, both repeat customers. B4 has
a very nice udder.
★
★
Pathfinder grandam R127 brought three photo feature progeny to auction for us.
★
★
Recommended for use on cows. K499 has the 2
nd
biggest Scrotal EPD in the fall bull
division! This has been correlated with higher daughter fertility.

K502 is a moderate framed, thick, easy fleshing, hunk! He will be a super cow-
maker and certainly has adequate performance, excellent carcass figures, and great
docility to be a very complete, well-rounded herd sire. Add in a different pedigree for
our repeat customers, and he becomes a pretty unique bull.
★
★
K502 was the 3
rd
top scanning IMF bull of his crop!
★
★
Dam H465 was a first calf heifer with K502. H465 weaned at 729 lbs., WR 111, YW
943 lbs., YR 102, IMF 4.45, ratio 100, ribeye 11.3”, ratio 105. She was the 5
th
heaviest
weaning weight heifer calf of her crop.
★
★
A full sister to H465 works in the herd with 3-105 WR. This female was the #1
weaning weight heifer of her crop at 792 lbs.
★
★
Pathfinder grandam D443 produced a $6500 son for repeat customer Dennis Faust.
Dennis does a great job of doing his homework prior to the sale. He marks his book,
then comes to the farm prior to the sale to see the dams of the bulls he is interested
in. He is very particular with his selections, and only takes home top-end bulls.
★
★
Pathfinder great grandam recorded 11-103 WR and a 362 day calving interval at the
end of her career at Hoover Angus.
★
★
K502 can easily be recommended for heifers as he ties as the 2
nd
lowest BW EPD
fall bull selling. He has the 3
rd
highest Marbling EPD in this auction and has the 4
th
top $B Value among the fall bulls!
