OPEN HEIFERS
★
★
A gorgeous CC&7 daughter out of a tremendous cow! This gal can really strut her
stuff – she is a nice profiling female with lots of top, rib, a square hip and a nice
amount of bone. She is super pretty fronted. L132 was the 7
th
top weaning weight
heifer calf of the crop at 747 pounds!
★
★
We felt L132 could come to auction since dam C375 has three daughters working
in the Hoover herd, one a Pathfinder. C375’s first daughter was the #1 adjusted
weaning weight and #2 adjusted yearling weight heifer of her crop. C375 maintains
a 360 day calving interval.
★
★
A Pathfinder maternal sister to C375 works in the herd.
★
★
C375’s sons work for Craigmore Farm in Canada and Roger Kester.
★
★
L132 has the #1 Docility EPD of the open heifers selling and ties with the #1 YW
EPD! Her Docility EPD is above the top 1% of the breed!

The famous combination of CC&7 mated to Gridiron, back to 377 – a 7/8 sibling to
Hoover Dam, and one of the most famous combinations Hoover Angus Farm has
ever produced in 85 years of breeding cattle!
★
★
L145 is extra long, feminine fronted, big topped and good footed. She is really tame
and would be great for a young 4-H member.
★
★
Dam D270 is the typical pretty Gridiron daughter – lots of muscle, yet feminine in the
front, and easy fleshing. Her 13.8” ribeye scan as a yearling heifer is proof of superb
muscle! Breed average ribeye for heifers is 9.67”.
★
★
A full brother to L145 sold to repeat customer Steve Archer for $5000 in our 2009
auction, then another full sister was retained in our herd, and now records 2-110
WR. A maternal sister to L145 by Reward has been retained as a replacement and
will calve this February.
★
★
Grandam A98 has three daughters and is the great grandam of the nice Total
Package bull calf, lot 76.
★
★
Great grandam 458 is a Pathfinder donor cow, still working in the herd at over 14
years of age. She records 13-96 BWR, 13-109 WR, 11-108 YR, 12-103 IMF ratio,
11-106 ribeye ratio, all with a 364 day calving interval! How could we ask for more?
She is truly an inspiration!

L239 was the 15
th
top weaning weight heifer calf of her crop at 730 lbs.! She has the
style typical of Reward progeny. She is sound made, deep ribbed and long bodied.
★
★
Dam C203 has earned Pathfinder status for her high production and regular calving
interval of 360 days. Progeny work for Miller Bros. Ranch, Myron Nothwehr, Mark
Anderson, and Marc Feller.
★
★
L239’s 4
th
generation dam, L913, gave rise to one of the most successful cow families
ever raised at Hoover Angus. L913 and her 24 daughter descendants working in the
herd have weaned a total of 138 non-ET progeny, with an average 103 wean ratio!
Eight Pathfinders are among the ranks of these great cows, and two more look to
have the qualifications to make the 2013 report.
★
★
8 Pathfinders are found in this pedigree!
★
★
L239 is one of three open heifers selling to break the +100 mark on YW EPD!

Kaleb Kuck, breeder of Basin Excitement, visits the cow herd in
August. Many visitors to the farm comment on the calmness of
our cattle.
