DEG TRENT 480T We purchased Trent as a calf beside his mother LC Wandering Petunia 480P fromDouble Eagle Gelbvieh in 2007 we knew soon as we seen him that he would bethe next herdsire in the Jen-Ty operation. He showed even as a calf greatthickness and muscle structure. He grew up and didn’t disappoint us. All his calfcrops show all the same traits. He always put pounds on every calf crop. This isthe last chance to get a Trent bull calf, as we had to put him down last yearwhich was very disappointing for us.

AWB BIRCH’S MAX 64XWe purchased Max as a yearling from Birch’s he is a dark red bull very structurallysound, polled, large testicle and seems to work well.

DVE DAVIDSON MR. JAY 61XWe purchased Mr. Jay from the Davidson ranch. He is a very thick soggy bull. Weused him just on our heifers and he did what he was suppose to easy calving,never had any issues using him on heifers.

We selected the maternal Totally Exposed to flush her to,producing progeny that have a nice balance of performance and maternal traits.45Z is the more moderate framed of the brothers and should produce most similarto his sire. 52Z is the power -house of the trio.

Another Exposure son that is thick and soggy. It might sound repetitive but that’sbecause these brothers are so similar. Exposure continues to sire progeny thatare uniform which is one of the most underappreciated traits in the beef industry.Calf buyers pay premiums when they can buy large groups of uniform calves. Ifthese brothers are like their sire, they will produce uniform calves as well.

Vision is the type of bull that drew us to the Gelbvieh breed. Moderate birthweight and smooth fronted with the thickness and depth of body that is hard tofind. The whole package. He is most likely the best Exposure son we haveproduced. This is no surprise since his pedigree has four of the most influentialherdsires in our program and the Anny cow family. His full sister is one of our topfirst calf heifers this year.

We had no Rally Lou bulls this year and it didn’t seem right to not have at leastone of his offspring in the sale so we decided to part with 74Z. Rally Lou has hada very significant impact on our program. His sons were always at the top of ourbull pen and his daughters have turned into very productive females. We onlyget Rally progeny from AI mating now so this may be the last chance to buy adirect daughter.

Dallas just like the Exposure sons has a ton of volume and thickness. Her weaningweight was at the top of the heifer pen but she will mature into a nice framedcow. She should become the type of female that the Gelbvieh breed is knownfor. With Rally Lou as her grand sire you also know that she should produce highperforming sons.
