2008 Bull Carcass Data and Scrotals [pdf]

Lot 1
LARSON SHILOH 731

Shiloh sets a high standard if you are looking for a herd sire with a different pedigree, powerful genetics, and a phenomenal spread between birth and yearling. It is safe to say he is one of the most exciting bulls to be sold this spring! An extremely athletic, smooth-moving bull, he carries himself like a champion. As you study the data, it is clear that, not only does he have the correct phenotype, he also has the performance and pedigree to set the breed on fire. Starting with his moderate, 82 lb birth weight and a 0.8 BW EPD, he explodes to a 45 Weaning EPD (Top 5%), a 94 Yearling EPD (Top 1%), and a 44 Total Maternal (Top 6%). Moving to the ERT's, his CED ranks in the Top 20%, HPG in the Top 4%, CETM in the Top 1%, and Stay ability in the Top 20%. From his 107 weaning ratio, he exploded to a 114 yearling ratio and a 4.24 ADG. Add the nicely balanced carcass traits to the equation.

Shiloh’s dam is a lovely Heaven Sake daughter going back to one of our top cows, Princess 014, a Hobo 79E daughter. The bloodline also traces back to the famed R012, a sire in the back pedigree of many of the top producers in the breed. Shiloh’s sire, Dude, is an exciting young sire out of the top cow in the breed, PAR Selma K1220. Her EPD's are record setting: 57 WW, 108 YW, 37 Milk, 66 TM, .34 IMF and .12 REA!! Shiloh is the TOTAL GENETIC PACKAGE, COMPLETE WITH ALL THE BELLS AND WHISTLES. His multi-trait superiority is remarkable! If possible, we would like to draw semen before the breeding season.
