K232 was the 10
th
top weaning weight heifer calf of her crop at over 700 pounds! She
went on to ace her scan and settle first service AI. So far, she has done everything
as perfectly as we could have asked! She has good extension, rib, and hip.
★
★
Dam H132 is on track to be one of the herd’s great cows. Her 2
nd
calf was the 11
th
top
weaning weight heifer calf of the 2012 crop at 739 pounds, helping earn H132 the
title of 5
th
top indexing cow in the Hoover cow herd!
★
★
H132 was a high performing female herself, weaning at 642 lbs., WR 105, YW 976
lbs., YR 110, IMF 6.00, ratio 128, ribeye 11.6”, ratio 108.
★
★
Grandam C2 was the favorite of several visitors to the farm the year she was
weaned. Truly a standout female! She is now the 2
nd
high IMF ratio cow in the herd
with 4-131 IMF ratio and has a calving interval of 354 days. Her excellent CC&7 son
sells as lot 17.
★
★
Great grandam, a Pathfinder, ended her career with 11-109 WR! One of her
daughters was the first cow ever flushed at Hoover Angus.Two sons sold for $10,000
or more, which is darn good for a 1993 model cow!

K292 is a pretty fronted female with depth and quarter bred first service AI to one of
Genex’s top new sires.
★
★
Pathfinder dam D58 has served as a donor cow, and three full sibs to K292 are
being retained in the herd. Another full sib to K292 records 3-108 WR!
★
★
D58 has a set of twins that ratioed 105 and 112 at weaning that are not included
in her birth, wean, and yearling ratios above. Even after stealing a flush, D58 still
maintains a superb 363 day calving interval.
★
★
A featured daughter of D58 (and full sister to K292) sold to Gary and Bev Hitchcock,
and this female flushed 23 embryos as a virgin heifer! D58’s other progeny have
been selected by David Groth, Max Shaffer, Dennis Faust, and James Baur, all
repeat customers.
★
★
When it gets close to calving time, D58 is a moaner when she is resting. She always
startles the person doing cow check, because they think someone is calving. . .
Nope, it’s just D58!
★
★
8 Pathfinders are found in this pedigree.

K330 is a stout, square made heifer with good capacity and length.
★
★
Pathfinder dam has three daughters in the herd, one a Pathfinder, which allows us
to sell K330. B305 is one of my favorite cows – she is very gentle, pretty, and nice
uddered. She is a bigger framed cow, but raises a whopping good, big calf every year.
★
★
A full sister to K330 raised an $8000 bull calf as a first calf heifer! Females like this
will pay for themselves very quickly! This female had the title of #1 WW EPD of any
Hoover female when she was a yearling heifer.
★
★
B305’s individual performance: BW 71 lbs., WW 732 lbs., WR 115, YW 1074 lbs., YR
113, IMF 5.14, ratio 106, ribeye 13.6”, ratio 111. B305 has the 2
nd
highest WW EPD
of any cow in production at Hoover Angus, stretching above the top 1% of the breed
for current Angus dams!
★
★
K330 is backed by many Pathfinder cows on the dam side. Her 1
st
, 3
rd
, 4
th
, and 5
th
generation dams have all earned the honor! These females are highly fertile cows
with top production records. Great grandam T77 records 9-105 WR with a 363 day
calving interval.
★
★
K330 ties as the 2
nd
highest WW EPD spring bred heifer selling!

Also, thanks to our crew back home calving cows and feeding cattle
